Limb Salvage Using Combined Linking Perforator Free Flaps

Microsurgical free tissue transfer is the most effective method for extensive reconstruction of lower limb defects. The purpose of this report is to describe our experience of using microsurgically fabricated combined linking perforator flaps for one-stage reconstruction of extensive lower limb defects. Between April 2008 and November 2016, 16 cases of extensive lower defects were reconstructed using combined linking flaps. Of the patients, 10...
