This flap is based on the transverse cervical artery and its descending branch and only includes a small portion of trapezius muscle tissue around the vascular pedicle. Both the length and width of the flap can exceed that of the traditional trapezius flap. So this flap is particularly suitable for repairing late-burn scar contracture of the neck. In addition, this flap has the potential to be used as a large free flap.
该皮瓣以颈横动脉及其降支为蒂,仅包含血管蒂周围一小部分斜方肌组织。皮瓣的长度和宽度均超过传统斜方皮瓣。因此,该皮瓣特别适合修复颈部晚期烧伤瘢痕挛缩。此外,该皮瓣有作为大型游离皮瓣使用的潜力。
