38.3 Pre-Operative Investigation
PAP ap perforators from the profunda femoris artery usu­ally tend not to have anatomical variations or anomalies, a hand-held Doppler will be enough for pre-operative investi­gation. After identifying the adductor longus and gracilis muscles, two or three perforators will be found with a hand­held Doppler below these two muscles. However, if CT angi­ography is available, a CT image will provide more specic information to identify the dominant perforators in each patient.
Nowadays, a duplex ultrasound is another useful tool to perform pre-operative investigation for free ap planning. Duplex ultrasound images provide the exact raising point of perforators from the adductor magnus muscle, and show the size and quality of the perforators. Kehrer et al. (2018) reported that they could map almost the exact emergence point of the PAP ap perforators with no false-negative sign. This information will help to determine which perforator to include in the ap.
38.4 Flap Design andMarkings
muscles are marked on the surface of the medial thigh. One to three perforators will be marked during the pre-operative investigation with a hand-held Doppler, CT angiography or duplex ultrasound. A red circle with an asterisk indicates a dominant perforator in this case. Because the donor site exists close to the hip joint, and the donor site wound tends to have relatively strong tension according to the patient’s body movement post-operatively, it recommends designing the width of the PAP ap less than 8cm for a safe donor site closure.
There are two types of ap incision markings, the trans­verse and vertical designs (Fig.38.2a, b). The design can be selected according to patient demands, the amount of subcu­taneous fat and perforator locations.
If indocyanine green (ICG) angiography is available, it is recommended to evaluate the lymphatic ow of the medial thigh in order to avoid damaging the lymphatic system, as reported by Karakawa etal. (2020). White arrows show the medial lymphatic ow in this patient.

Guide
The perforators are marked and the ap design is drawn as the patient is positioned in the frog-leg position (Fig.38.2a,
b). The adductor longus muscle can be palpated between the
pubic tubercle and medial knee joint, when you ask the patient to adduct the thigh. Just below the adductor longus muscle, the gracilis muscle can be palpated, and these two
Step 1. Make a Skin Incision. Find the Great Saphenous Vein If Necessary
Start by making a skin incision to the anterior incision line of the ap. In the subdermal tissue, the great saphenous vein (short white arrows) and its branch, named the posterior

accessory saphenous vein (long white arrows), can be identi­ed (Fig.38.3). Karakawa etal. (2019) reported the usability of including the accessory saphenous vein in the PAP ap. If the recipient vein has a rather large calibre size, and the ap needs a large drainage vein, including the accessory saphe­nous vein in the ap will be another option for ap venous drainage.
Step 2. Find the Landmark Muscle, The Adductor Longus Muscle
After making the skin incision, it is easy to dissect the skin paddle from the anterior border to the posterior border. Dissection of the skin paddle continues under the deep fas­cia, which will help you to identify both the adductor longus and gracilis muscles. You can identify the adductor longus muscle rst, just after making an incision into the deep fascia (Fig.38.4a).
Step 3. Find the Second Landmark Muscle, the Gracilis Muscle
Next to the adductor longus muscle, the gracilis muscle will appear 2–3cm posterior to the adductor longus muscle. The adductor longus and gracilis muscles are key muscles to tell you that your dissection is in the right layer, and you will nd
the adductor magnus muscle next to these two muscles (Fig.38.4b).
Step 4. Identify the Adductor Magnus Muscle
The adductor magnus muscle is next to the gracilis muscle (Fig.38.5a). To start dissecting the adductor muscle means that you have stepped into the “Hot zone” to nd the perfora­tors from the profunda femoris artery penetrating the adduc­tor magnus muscle. Therefore, dissection should be meticulous once you have found the adductor magnus muscle.
Step 5. Identify the Dominant Perforator of the PAP Flap
Usually, the perforators from the profunda femoris artery give off several skin perforators. You can choose one or two perforators that will be suitable for a ap setting. The white arrows show the dominant perforator (Fig.38.5b). Sometimes two skin perforators are found to be joined during muscular dissection. Therefore, if you can nd two close skin perfora­tors, it is recommended to dissect both perforators expecting both perforators to be joined together, and the ap can have a stable vascular supply.
Step 6. Dissection of the Flap Pedicle to Obtain Enough Length for Flap Setting
Once the perforator is identied, skeletonizing the perforator is relatively straightforward. Unlike the DIEP ap or ALT ap pedicle, the PAP ap pedicle usually runs straight into the profunda femoris artery. This route makes skeletonizing the PAP ap pedicle rather simple. But the perforator gives off several small muscle branches (Fig.38.6a), so careful ligation and separation are necessary. The muscle branch of the PAP ap becomes relatively larger in the proximal side, and the calibre size of the side branch vessels become large enough for micro-anastomosis (Fig.38.6a). This side branch will be a recipient vessel if the stacked PAP ap is consid­ered for use.
In the end, the PAP ap with adequate bulk can be har­vested (Fig.38.6b). The PAP ap can include the posterior saphenous vein as a lifeboat vessel for an extra drainage.

gus and gracilis muscles, subfascial dissection makes it easy for you to nd these muscles. Therefore, you have to open the fascia of the adductor longus, gracilis and adductor mag­nus one by one as shown in steps 2–4 (Figs.38.4a and 38.6a). If you are confused about which muscle you are dissecting, the gracilis muscle will be a guide for you. The gracilis mus­cle has a distinctive shape (step 3). It looks like a muscle belt, and it is easily separated from the surrounding tissues. Once you can recognize the gracilis muscle, you can identify the adductor magnus muscle posterior to the gracilis muscle.
Usually, you can nd two or three perforators penetrating
you can obtain enough length of the ap pedicle for the ap setting. Even though the ap pedicle seems to have enough length for your plan, it is recommended to dissect further to provide an extra 1 or 2cm length. Because the PAP ap ped­icle tends to become shorter after a ap harvesting, this extra dissection will prevent you having trouble with ap setting. When you have skeletonized approximately 8 to 10cm of the ap pedicle, the calibre size of the perforator becomes large enough up to about 2mm to anastomose to any kind of recip­ient vessels, such as the internal mammary artery or superior thyroid artery (step 6).
the adductor magnus muscle. You can choose which one to dissect according to the size or location of the perforator. Sometimes, there is one dominant perforator, which is the

largest of the vessels. Because the PAP ap has a limited number of perforators in the medial posterior thigh area, it is
38.7.1 Scenario 1
not difcult to decide which perforator to include compared to the DIEP ap, which has multiple choices of perforators (step 5). During the pedicle skeletonization, two Weitlaner retractors or similar retractors will help you to provide a sta­ble dissection window. Start with deroong the perforator, and the surrounding muscles are divided with a ne mos­quito or dissecting scissors. Several muscular branches from the PAP ap pedicle can be observed during intra-muscular dissection. Careful separation of these branch vessels with a
The PAP ap could be an alternative option of breast recon­struction for a patient with small- to medium-sized breast. Moreover, the PAP ap is another option for breast recon­struction if a patient has multiple scars in the abdomen, does not have enough fat for breast reconstruction in the abdomen and lumbar region, or plans a future pregnancy. The PAP ap can be placed in the defect with a cone shape or transverse settings according to the shape of the patient breast.

370
38.7.2 Scenario 2
The PAP ap is available for a simple small to the medium size of head and neck defect such as hemi-glossectomy or parotidectomy defect. Using the PAP ap, pliable skin with adequate volume of adipose tissue can be transferred to the defect. In this scenario, the skin paddle is better to design in the vertical fashion by including the distal perforator of the PAP ap. Sometimes, the PAP ap pedicle becomes shorter than expected, and which makes the ap setting difcult for head and neck defect. Vertical design with the distal perfora­tor enables the ap to extend its pedicle length with de- epithelializing part of the skin paddle as a part of the ap pedicle.
38.8 Pearls andPitfalls
Pearls
• Find and identify the adductor longus and gracilis muscles rst. These key muscles tell you that you are in the right plane to dissect.
• Continue to dissect under the deep fascia until you can identify the adductor magnus muscle.
Sometimes during a skin paddle elevation, a relatively
robust perforator from the gracilis originating from the medial femoral circumex system can be found. In this scenario, you can switch to harvesting the ap as a transverse upper gracilis (TUG) ap.
• In the case of head and neck reconstruction, often the defect needs a rather long ap pedicle. In this scenario, you can de-epithelialize part of the ap, and use this part as an extension of the pedicle.
• There is a possibility of harvesting the innervated PAP ap including the cutaneous branch of the obturator nerve.
T. Yano
Pitfalls
• Do not take too large a skin paddle. The width of the PAP ap is recommended to harvest within 8cm for a safe donor site primary closure. Donor site wound problems can be more serious after harvesting the PAP ap if you harvest too much material for the skin paddle.
• It is recommended to create a ap pedicle that is as long as possible. The PAP ap pedicle tends to be shorter than you expect after detaching the ap from the donor site. Usually, one single per­forator will be enough for nourishing small- to medium-sized PAP ap. On the other hand, ICG angiographies such as SPY system or PDE neo will always help you to reduce the risk of fat necrosis or wound healing post-operatively.
• In some cases, the donor site scar is little bit lower than a patient has expected due to the loca­tion of the perforator.
• When you perform ap dissection of the poste­rior part of the ap, you should take care not to damage the posterior femoral cutaneous nerve.
• In some cases, a hemi-lateral PAP ap might provide only limited volume for breast recon­struction. For instance, sometimes the PAP ap cannot provide enough volume in the breast upper pole area. In that case, you can consider using both sides of the PAP ap as a stacked PAP ap. It is a very rare scenario for the PAP ap, but if you cannot nd any single adequate perfo­rator to raise the PAP ap, you can switch to use the medial circumex artery perforator as TUG ap or to harvest the PAP ap from the contralat­eral side of the thigh.

39.1 Introduction
The medial aspect of the knee, and specically the descend­ing genicular artery (DGA), was rst recognized as a poten­tial donor site for a vascularized ap in 1981 [1]. In 1985, the osteoarticular branch (OAB) of the DGA was realized as a ap supply source in harvesting the adductor magnus tendon and tubercle [2].
The contemporary medial femoral condyle (MFC) ap was rst described in 1988 as a free corticoperiosteal ap to address pseudoarthrosis of the upper limb [3]. The innova­tive feature of this ap was inclusion of cortical bone, thereby preventing disruption of the highly osteogenic cambrium layer of periosteum violated with vascularized periosteal aps [4].
The MFC ap can be raised as a pedicled or free cortico­periosteal, corticocancellous, or osteochondral graft with or without a neurotized skin island. The ap is extremely versa­tile and can be shaped according to donor site needs without compromising blood supply. Use of the MFC graft has been described in the clavicle [57], manubrium [8], humerus [4,
5, 9, 10], metacarpal [4, 11], scaphoid [1215], capitate [16, 17], lunate [16, 18], forearm [4, 5], tibia [19, 20], femur [21],
talus [5], calcaneus [22], as well as head and neck recon­struction [2327] with indications encompassing radiation­induced pathologic fractures, primary or recalcitrant nonunions, or sites with known or anticipated poor vascular­ity or healing potential [6, 28]. When inclusive of cartilage from the trochlea, the graft is instead given the moniker of medial femoral trochlea (MFT) graft [29, 30].

39.2 Anatomy
The vascular anatomy of the medial knee in the context of vascularized grafts was rst explored by Hertel and Masquelet in 1989, simultaneously marking the appearance of the MFC ap in the American literature [19]. The MFC ap is supplied by the descending (or supreme) genicular artery (DGA) (present intraoperatively in 93% of knees) and venae comitantes [13, 19, 31]. The DGA originates off the medial aspect of the supercial femoral artery (SFA) approx­imately 14cm above the joint line (11–18cm) just before the SFA passes through the adductor magnus hiatus [4, 13, 19]. Mean diameter and length is sufcient for microvascular anastomosis at 1.5–2.1mm and 1.2cm, respectively [19, 31]. It consistently branches into an osteoarticular branch (OAB) (90% from the DGA; 6% directly from the SFA), the pre­dominant supply for the MFC graft, a saphenous artery branch (SAB) (79% present), which can simultaneously sup­ply a skin ap for transfer, and a muscular branch (MB) [13,
19]. The mean distance of the OAB origination is 11.3cm
above the joint line [13]. The vessel runs on the posterior surface of the medial intermuscular septum with a mean diameter of 1.2 mm at its origin [19]. Proximal branching near the origin (40%) and distal branching near the adductor tubercle (60%) then occurs, where the OAB splits into medial and lateral branches, some of which supply the posterior bor­der of the vastus medialis. Just proximal to the knee joint capsule and MCL origin, the OAB joins with the sMGA to create a rich, almost circular, anastomosis supplying the overlying periosteum. Recent mappings and in-depth reex­amination of the microvascular anatomy of this region sug­gest there to be an average of 30 osteoarticular perforators extending to a depth of 13mm with highest concentration of these located in the posterior-distal quadrant of the condylar surface [31].
Independently perfused or dual-supply MFC grafts based off the superomedial genicular artery (sMGA) were described early-on to further enhance ap vascularity [4]. While dual

vascularity remains an option, incorporation is not essential. The sMGA is present 98% of the time and originates from the medial aspect of the popliteal artery at a mean distance of
5.2cm above the joint line [13, 32]. These vessels are typi­cally shorter, smaller, harder to dissect, and have no cutane­ous vascular supply to support skin if needed for transfer, however, they are the dominant supply to the MFC region in 23% of intraoperative exposures and the only vessel in 7% of cases [32]. In the native knee, both the DGA and sMGA serve as the principal nourishment to the periosteum of the MFC, while playing a relatively minor role in corticomedul­lary perfusion [5]. Thus, destruction of residual perfusion to the donor site bed is not a concern.
39.3 Preoperative Investigation
The anatomy of the medial knee is highly consistent, thereby obviating the need for preoperative vascular mapping in most instances. If desired, Doppler ultrasonography can be used. This may be most useful to identify and mark the SAB if a skin island is planned. This vessel is located distally in the medial thigh just posterior to the midlateral line [21]. It perfuses an area of skin approximately 361cm2 [33]. Smaller skin islands, measuring up to 70 cm2, may also be raised solely on cutaneous perforators of the DGA [33]. Prior inci­sions should be recognized and incorporated if possible. Use of the ipsilateral knee is preferred for recipient sites of the upper extremity. This allows two surgical teams in the room to operate simultaneously. In upper extremity recipients, use of the ipsilateral knee also allows the patient to use a cane in the contralateral hand if necessary. Otherwise, either knee may be used.
The patient is placed supine with the hip and knee exed and externally rotated. The recipient site should be exposed rst if not done simultaneously by a second operating team. A sterile tourniquet is applied to the proximal thigh and raised (usually to 300mmHg) just prior to medial thigh inci­sion and exposure.
39.4 Flap Design andMarkings
A bulk section of distal medial femoral metaphyseal bone 6–8cm in length may be harvested in most instances, as well as 5–7 cm corticoperiosteal aps. The proximal extent of periosteal perfusion of the DGA is much greater (up to
13.7 cm or 29% of total femur length in cadaveric speci­mens) [34]. Despite this, it is important not to extend the harvest past the metaphyseal-diaphyseal junction as it cre­ates a stress riser that may result in a delayed supracondylar
femur fracture. This is a well-known complication in the total knee replacement literature when femoral condyle bone cuts extend past the metaphyseal diaphyseal junction [35]. Thin corticoperiosteal grafts with large dimensions (8×13cm2) have been successfully raised for humeral non­unions in the past with no known incident of perioperative fracture [36].
The portion of the MFC used for ap harvest is that which has the greatest density of perforating vessels. This has been previously dened as the posterior-distal quadrant of the femoral condyle and has the following borders: (1) the ham­string insertion and medial collateral ligament (MCL) origin posteriorly, (2) the anterior horn of the medial meniscus anteriorly, (3) the hamstring insertion proximally, and (4) the proximal pole of the patella distally.
39.5 Flap Raise/Elevation: AStep-by-Step
Guide
1. Incision
Incision is dependent on indication. A straight 18–20cm medial thigh incision starting at the joint line and extending proximally along the posterior border of the vastus medialis is used for non-articular grafts (Fig.39.1), while a 15 cm curvilinear incision with the apex at the proximal pole of the patella is used when inclusion of articular cartilage into the graft is desired.
2. Exposure (a) Vastus medialis muscle fascia is divided at its poste-
rior border along the entire length of the incision and the muscle belly is retracted anteriorly to fully appre­ciate the MFC and overlying vascularity in the bed of the wound (Fig.39.2).
3. Graft Planning (a) Once the supply vessel has been chosen (DGA or
sMGA), the pedicle should be isolated by suture liga­tion of the unused vessel. The planned graft is then outlined on the MFC periosteum using bipolar elec­trocautery at posterior-distal aspect of the MFC for non-articular grafts, anterior-proximal MFC for artic­ular grafts, and broadly across the condylar surface for corticoperiosteal grafts in order to maximize per­fusion potential (Fig. 39.3—structural (a), cortico­periosteal (b), and MFT (c) graft plans are shown).
4. Graft Separation (a) A small very sharp curved osteotome or microsagittal
saw is used to vertically divide the borders of the graft to the desired depth. The proximal border is the last cut made for non-articular grafts while division

through the cartilage is the nal cut made in articular grafts (Fig.39.4—structural (a) and corticoperiosteal (b) graft separation is shown).
5. Graft Elevation (a) One critical step unique to raising a structural graft to
prevent graft fragmentation or fracture is to raise an adjacent small wedge of bone 1–2 cm large. This permits undercutting the graft with a curved osteo­tome at the desired depth and elevation of the graft en-bloc. Otherwise, nonstructural grafts may be elevated after the nal cut is carefully made (Fig. 39.5—structural (a) and corticoperiosteal (b) graft elevation is shown with the additional techni­cal feature recommended when raising a structural graft highlighted (c)).
6. Graft Preparation and Division (a) The graft pedicle is clipped and divided. Once, har-
vested, it is customized according to recipient site geometry (Fig.39.6—structural (a) and corticoperi­osteal (b) grafts shown after graft division).

Fig. 39.5 A small block or wedge of bone is removed adjacent to a planned structural graft so that it can be elevated en-bloc using a curved osteotome. An example of this critical step is shown clinically (a) and
in an illustrated form (b). This is not necessary for raising a corticoperi­osteal graft (c). (Reproduced with permission of the Mayo Foundation)
7. Donor Site Closure (a) The donor site defect is lled with synthetic hydroxy-
apatite bone ller (for non-articular grafts) and the wound is irrigated and closed in a layered fashion with absorbable sutures over suction drains.
8. Graft Inset and Anastomosis (a) Non-articular grafts should be inset and xed into the
a
donor bed while corticoperiosteal grafts are wrapped around bone and xed with sutures. Both press-t and supplemented xation options may be used for articular grafts. Microvascular anastomosis is then performed using an operative microscope and ade­quacy of perfusion conrmed (Fig.39.7—structural graft for scaphoid osteonecrosis (a), MFT graft for proximal pole scaphoid nonunion with fragmentation (b) and corticoperiosteal graft for clavicle nonunion (c) are shown).
