Özet

Pre-expanded perforator flaps are the most recent technical way to shape tissue for exact needs. Reconstruction with pre-expanded free perforator flaps has proven successful in terms of obtaining more extensive, more pliable, and thinner flaps that have increased vascularity, and also causing less donor site morbidity. In this article the author's experience with the clinical application of such flaps and the relevant published literature are reviewed.
