Abstract

The groin donor site distinguishes itself among other choices because it is easily concealed and has minimal morbidity. However, the flap has many drawbacks including a short pedicle length and small sized vessels. A perforator skin flap in this region would potentially offer the advantages of an aesthetically favored donor scar, long vascular pedicle, and minimal donor-site morbidity. The purpose of this report was to describe the anatomic basis of the deep circumflex iliac artery (DCIA) perforator skin flap and to report clinical applications.
