Abstract

We used two flow-through arterialised venous free flap transfers with the long saphenous vein to reconstruct major arteries and injured skin and soft tissues in the upper extremity. Operating time was reduced, only one donor site was used, and reconstruction of a long arterial defect (24-25 cm) was possible.
