Abstract

The free scapular flap was used as an alternative to a conventional pedicle flap in resurfacing scarred areas and padding major nerve trunks on the upper extremities in a series of 8 patients. The free flap proved to be rather reliable (one failure), convenient to the patients and cheaper for the Health Service than a conventional flap.
