The SCIP propeller flap: Versatility for reconstruction of locoregional defect

摘要

Introduction: Abdominopelvic defect is frequently a challenge. Several local flaps exist for this anatomical region, but sequelae of the donor site, particularly with regard to morbidity on the anterior abdominal wall, are frequent. Although the utility of the superficial circumflex iliac artery flap is well established in its free form as well as its pedicled form described by McGregor, the superficial circumflex iliac artery perforator (SCIP) propeller flap is rarely reported. The purpose of this study is to highlight the possible range of locoregional coverage using the SCIP propeller flap.
