  • Title: Skin flap failure: pathophysiology.
    Author: Kerrigan CL.
    Journal: Plast Reconstr Surg; 1983 Dec; 72(6):766-77. PubMed ID: 6647600.
    Abstract:
    An experimental study was undertaken in pigs to clarify the pathophysiologic events occurring in a failing skin flap. It was demonstrated that skin flaps fail because of arterial insufficiency. Arteriovenous shunting is not a major cause of skin flap necrosis.
