Pre‐expanded pedicled thoracodorsal artery perforator flap for postburn axillary contracture reconstruction

Abstract

The pre-expanded pedicled TDA perforator flap is a suitable alternative for coverage of the axillary defects after the release of the burn contractures. A pliable texture and large size flap can be obtained to transfer to the axillary area and the donor site scar is considered as cosmetically acceptable.
