Title: Amputation stump salvage using a "banked" free-tissue transfer. Author: Jennings JF, Murphy RX, Chernofsky MA, Chowdary RP. Journal: Ann Plast Surg; 1991 Oct; 27(4):361-3. PubMed ID: 1772229. Abstract: A free radical forearm flap was salvaged from a nonreplantable amputated extremity and banked on the ipsilateral chest wall. Later, the flap was simply rotated to provide coverage of the proximal humeral stump, eliminating the need for a second microvascular procedure.[Abstract] [Full Text] [Related] [New Search]
