Abstract

A perforator-based medial arm propeller flap was planned from the medial arm region near the medial elbow soft tissuedefect as an alternative flap. The flap was elevated and rotated by 180˚ to the defect based on the perforator. The perforator-based medial arm propeller flap should be considered as an option for reconstruction of medial elbow soft-tissuedefects. The flap is easy to harvest, the operation is quick, the donor area scar is well-hidden, and the skin in this area iselastic. However, in the proximal forearm region, a flap may not be safe enough.
