Estudo clínico do retalho lateral do braço ampliado

Abstract

20 cm in length, with an average of 14cm, and width, from 3 to 8cm, with an average of 5.5cm. The greatest distance between the lateral epicondyle and the distal flap was 8cm, ranging from 2cm to 8cm, with an average of 4.9cm. Conclusion: The lateral arm flap, extended distally to the lateral epicondyle of the elbow, was safe to cover cutaneous lesions of size equal to or smaller than 20cm long by 10cm wide, with the extension of the flap up to 8cm distal to the lateral epicondyle.
