Abstract
Propeller flaps based on perforator vessels are raising interest in reconstructive surgery of the limbs. These flaps allow efficient coverage of small to medium wounds without the need to sacrifice a major vascular axis. The operative technique does not require microvascular anastomosis and allows reconstruction of soft tissue defects using nearby similar tissues. The aim of this study was to evaluate the role of propeller perforator fasciocutaneous flaps in reconstruction of soft tissue defects of upper limb,and to identify the anatomical sites of perforators of upper limb, their types and constancy, furthermore to compare anatomical with clinical data. Also to assess the versatility, safety, complications and reliability of propeller perforator flap in the management of soft-tissue defects of upper extremity.
