The scapular flap--an anatomical and clinical study.
The scapular flap is a medium-sized flap combining many of the good qualities of others, such as thinness and minimal donor site deficit, with the potentialities of a consistently long pedicle that allows combination with other adjacent flaps. The anatomy of the flap and its application in nine clinical cases is described.
