The Radial Artery Pedicle Perforator Flap: Vascular Analysis and Clinical Implications

Abstract

There are two main clusters of clinically significant radial artery perforators. Increased knowledge of size, location, and cutaneous territory of the radial artery perforators can lead to expanded use of the radial artery forearmflap based on cutaneous perforators alone, without sacrificing the radial artery.
