Abstract

BACKGROUND: The deep circumflex iliac artery (DCIA) perforator flap is an established method to reconstruct osteocutaneous defects. However, the cutaneous perforators come with a great anatomic variability. To deal with this problem, we used a sequential chimeric osteocutaneous free flap for reconstruction.

PATIENTS AND METHODS: A 58-year-old man presented with an open tibial fracture after an avalanche accident resulting in an extended osteocutaneous defect in the lower extremity. The injury required osteocutaneous free flap coverage. We reconstructed the defect with a sequential chimeric osteocutaneous DCIA-perforator-SIEA flap.

RESULTS: The preservation of the ascending branch of the deep circumflex iliac vessels offered us the possibility to effectively cover an extended osteocutaneous defect in the lower extremity with a sequential chimeric osteocutaneous DCIA-perforator-SIEA flap. In our patient, the sequential chimeric osteocutaneous DCIA-perforator-SIEA flap healed without complications. A small hernia developed at the inguinal donor site area, but it healed without further complications after surgical treatment. The patient regained an adequate function and returned to daily life and physical exercise.

CONCLUSION: While preparing the DCIA-perforator free flap, it is important to preserve the ascending branch of the deep circumflex iliac vessels and the vessels needed to harvest either a SIEA or SCIP flap.
