Perforator flaps have increased in use, with advantages such as sparing of the underlying muscle with resultant decreased donor-site morbidity and the possibility of improving aesthetic outcome. Theoretically, a flap can be based on any perforator, whether free or pedicled, based on the perforasome theory. In this study, the principle of free-style perforator flaps was used to harvest pedicled flaps.
