    Author: Hammer H, Bugyi I.
    Journal: Handchir Mikrochir Plast Chir; 1988 Jan; 20(1):20-6. PubMed ID: 2895050.
    Abstract:
    A free fascio-cutaneous flap can be raised from the lateral arm. This flap is especially suitable for smaller defects. The area is supplied by a terminal branch of the profunda brachii artery. The anatomy of the donor site as well as several steps in dissection are described. Three cases where a lateral arm flap has been used are shown, together with a rare intraoperative complication.
