Septocutaneous Gluteal Artery Perforator Flap in Lateral Decubitus Position for Breast Reconstruction

The Microvascular Anatomy of Superior and Inferior Gluteal Artery Perforator (SGAP and IGAP) Flaps: A Fresh Cadaveric Study and Clinical Implications

“…Technical difficulties are often encountered during dissection, stemming from the flaps' complex, and sometimes varied, vascular anatomy, while pedicle length and vessel mismatch at the site of the anastomosis pose further surgical challenges. These difficulties have recently led to modifications of these flaps such as the redesigned [8] gluteal artery perforator flap (based on either the superior or the inferior gluteal vessels depending on the location of the selected perforator) and the septocutaneous [9][10][11][12] gluteal artery perforator flap.…”
