Abstract
The unpleasant appearance of the donor site after harvesting a forearm flap limits its use in many centers. In this paper, the author records his experience with a modification of the standard fasciocutaneous forearm flap. Such modification involves the utilization of the fascial component of the flap sparing the skin of the forearm, which is closed as a longitudinal line. This fascial forearm flap (FFF) was used as a free flap in eight cases. All the flaps survived well, and the donor site appearance was excellent. The fascial forearm flap advantages and limitations are discussed with recommendations for further utilization of other fascial flaps.
