A Cadaveric Anatomy Study of the Shape-Modified Radial Forearm Flap.

Purpose: Mateev developed a shape-modified radial forearm flap (SMRFF), the use of which is not widespread. This study aimed to analyze hand subunit defects and combinations thereof that can be reconstructed using the SMRFF.

Methods: An anatomical study of 10 injected cadavers was conducted to investigate the subunits and combinations reachable with SMRFF.
