| Core Tip |
In this study, we examined the use of combined fasciocutaneous and gluteus maximus muscle flaps to reconstruct grade IV decubitus ulcers in patients with paraplegia. Radiological evaluation was employed to measure flap thickness, and the combined flap approach was found to provide successful reconstruction, with only minor complications. The study revealed a slight reduction in flap thickness over time; however, adequate coverage was maintained. This combined flap method offers a valuable treatment option for challenging decubitus ulcers in patients with paraplegia, and addresses the issues of flap thickness and recurrence. |
