Leg Coverage Defects Clinical Trial
Official title:
Medial Tab-type Fasciocutaneous Flap as an Alternative for the Management of Soft Tissue Defects of the Leg
Selecting the right technique for lower limb soft tissue reconstruction is a therapeutic challenge. Despite having several reconstruction options, it's important to choose a technique that is effective and with the least possible donor site morbidity for the patient. Objective: demonstrate the therapeutic efficacy of the medial tab flap in soft tissue reconstruction on the leg, compared to conventional flaps. Materials and methods: Cohort study matched with Propensity Score Matching (PSM) by age. 64 patients with soft tissue defects were selected and followed up to one year postoperatively. Outcome variables: surgical time in minutes, healing, healing time in days, complications.
