Abstract
|
|
|
One of the most frequently used flaps for coverage of sacral skin and soft-tissue defects is the gluteus maximus musculocutaneous flap. These authors encountered two cases of sacral pressure sore, for which reconstructive surgery was performed, using the hatchetshaped gluteus maximus musculocutaneous flap ? a modified flap type. We report on our experience in treatment of these two cases, with an excellent outcome.
