Anatomic and high-resolution computed tomographic angiography study of the lateral femoral condyle flap: Implications for surgical dissection
Background The lateral femoral condyle (LFC) flap is a vascularized bone flap based on the
superior lateral genicular artery (SLGA). Harvest technique for this flap has not yet been
demonstrated. The purpose of this study was to better delineate the blood supply to the bone
and skin of this flap to allow for a safe and effective harvest. Materials and methods Twenty-
three lower extremities were injected with latex or a mixture of latex and barium sulfate. The
SLGA was identified and dissected, documenting the course, diameter, anatomical relations …
