Abstract

Background: Pedicled perforator flap in hand is variety and flexible  motion. Purpose: Describing characteristics of soft tissue defects and evaluating results of reconstructing this injuries by local pedicled perforator flaps at Viet Tiep Hospital from 1/2018 to 9/2018. Method: Uncontrolled clinical interventional study. Results: 11 patients with 13 soft tissue defects were treated by 15 local pedicled perforator flaps. The minimum size of flap was 1,5x2cm and the maximum one was 3x9 cm. There were 14 flaps which were survived and one flap was necrosis at the one third lower area of flap. 14/15 donor sites were performed thickness skin grafts and they were survived. 1/15 flap was sutured directly  to heal by primary intention. Conclusion: Local pedicled perforator flaps are  trustful material to reconstruct soft tissue defects of fingers.
