Skin flap failure: pathophysiology
Abstract
An experimental study was undertaken in pigs to clarify the pathophysiologic events occurring in a failing skin flap. It was demonstrated that skin flaps fail because of arterial insufficiency. Arteriovenous shunting is not a major cause of skin flap necrosis.
