An early complication in the donor site of the medial sural artery perforator flap: necrosis of the medial head of gastrocnemius

The relatively new medial sural artery perforator flap is increasingly being used for reconstruction. However, muscle necrosis of the medial head of gastrocnemius after MSAP flap harvest is a previously unnoticed early complication of the donor site. We present two cases of MSAP flap reconstruction...

description The relatively new medial sural artery perforator flap is increasingly being used for reconstruction. However, muscle necrosis of the medial head of gastrocnemius after MSAP flap harvest is a previously unnoticed early complication of the donor site. We present two cases of MSAP flap reconstruction that developed this early complication.
