Simultaneous Bilateral Foot Reconstruction Using a Single Radial Forearm Flap

Abstract

The radial forearm septocutaneous flap is an excellent source of thin tissue with an anatomically consistent network of large vessels that simplify microsurgical transfer. It may be divided into multiple flaps leaving a single donor-site defect. The clinical usefulness of this concept is demonstrated in a single case in which simultaneous coverage of electrical burns of both feet was required.
