Vascular Anatomy of the Supraclavicular Area Revisited: Feasibility of the Free Supraclavicular Perforator Flap
Vascular anatomy of the supraclavicular area revisited: feasibility of the free supraclavicular perforator flap. Cordova A, Pirrello R, D'Arpa S, Jeschke J, Brenner E, Moschella F. Source Cattedra di Chirurgia Plastica e Ricostruttiva, Dipartimento di Discipline Chirurgiche ed Oncologiche, Università degli Studi di Palermo, Palermo, Italy. adriana.cordova.unipa@gmail.com Abstract BACKGROUND: The supraclavicular skin has been studied extensively and used as a pedicled flap for face and neck reconstruction. Its use as a free flap has not paralleled its use as a pedicled flap. The authors performed an anatomical investigation to assess the possibility of harvesting a free supraclavicular flap …
