Abstract
Large wounds of the hand and upper extremity require secure closure for protection of the underlying structures. The skin of the lower abdomen can be raised in a lenticular fashion, supported by the superficial inferior epigastric artery and veins and applied as a flap to wounds of the distal upper extremity. The flap demonstrates versatility in positioning, and the donor site can be closed in a linear fashion. Viability of this superficial inferior epigastric artery flap is demonstrated by the case reports.
