The defects were caused by hot-crush injury (n=2), electrical injury (n=4), severe burn (n=2), crush injury (n=3), and avulsion injury (n=3). After admission, the patients underwent the debridement, vacuum suction, and skin graft to repair partial wound. The deep defects with the exposure of tendon and bone were repaired by paraumbilical perforator flap finally. Methods: .. Read More»
