Perforated Skin Flap

A perforated skin flap is a free flap of considerable size in which small holes are cut. This design allows you to cover a large area of ​​the wound surface and prevent the accumulation of exudate under the flap.

Perforations in the flap provide drainage of discharge from the wound and prevent the accumulation of fluid in the subflap space. This reduces the likelihood of developing infectious complications and tissue necrosis.

The use of perforated flaps is indicated for extensive wound defects when closure of a large area of ​​the lesion is required. This technique allows you to achieve reliable isolation of the wound and create optimal conditions for healing.
