“…The pooled rate of recipient site dehiscence with the gracilis (0.276 [95% CI 0.134, 0.443]) was higher than that of the VRAM (0.158 [95% CI 0.086, 0.246]) [ 11 , 12 , 21 , 26 , 27 , 28 , 29 , 30 , 31 , 33 , 34 , 38 ] ( Figure 5 A,B). Concerning donor site infection rate, the pooled analysis was similar for both flaps: VRAM (0.091 [95% CI 0.035, 0.168]) vs. gracilis (0.078 [95% CI 0.016, 0.170]) [ 12 , 21 , 26 , 27 , 28 , 29 , 30 , 31 , 34 , 36 , 38 ] ( Figure 6 A,B). Recipient site infection rate was similar between gracilis (0.135 [95% CI 0.065, 0.223]) and VRAM (0.104 [95% CI 0.049, 0.176]) [ 11 , 21 , 26 , 27 , 29 , 30 , 31 , 34 , 35 , 36 ] ( Figure 7 A,B).…”
