[The Chinese anti-brachial radial flap: anatomic study].

Concerning twenty forearms of fresh cadavers, the authors describe a cutaneous flap irrigated by a radial artery whose ligature is without consequence on the vascularization of the hand. They specify the margins of the flap, its vascularization and innervation. They also specify the anatomical sacrifices necessary to its dissection and the different bony and tendinous elements which it is possible to include to form a complex osteo-musculo-cutaneous flap.
