Oblique scapular flap

Scand J Plast Reconstr Surg Hand Surg. 2006;40(2):124-7. doi: 10.1080/0284431051006466.

Abstract

We report an axial transposition flap based on the anterior branch of the descending branch of the circumflex scapular artery. This has some advantages, including a hidden donor site, easy transfer with no abnormalities, no distortion of the structures, and much pliable tissue.
