40 Medial Sural Artery Perforator Flap
tissue is required at the recipient site, such as the foot and
ankle and dorsum of hand [37]. Leahy et al. have shown
than the medial calf is associated with 47% less supra-fascial adipose tissue than the ALT region in both men and
women [38].
40.3 Pre-operative Investigation
Routine pre-operative imaging is not required for MSAP ap
harvest. However, CT angiography may be useful in patients
with previous lower limb injury or surgery or patients with
diabetes and atherosclerotic disease.
A standard hand-held Doppler ultrasound (8–10Hz) is
routinely used to map perforators pre-operatively on the
operating table [39]. These are most commonly found
along the line marked from the midpoint of the popliteal
fossa to the medial malleolus, in the region 6–18cm below
the popliteal crease and 1–3cm lateral to the midline of the
calf.
Colour duplex-Doppler has also been shown to be reliable
for planning of sural artery perforator aps due to high precision in detecting location of dominant perforators and ability
to assess ow more accurately than standard Doppler ultrasound [40].
For more accurate perforator mapping with assessment of
the intra-muscular pedicle course, branching pattern type
[32] or the site of fascial perforation, CT angiogram [41],
with or without 3D visualization reconstruction [42], can
also be used. While these are more time- and resourceintensive, it has been shown that routine use of pre-operative
CT angiogram may help determine which leg has the most
favorable branching pattern type and intra-muscular course
for ap harvest [32].
40.4 Flap Design andMarkings
Flap Markings (Fig.40.2)
• Mark the midpoint of the popliteal fossa and the medial
malleolus.
– Draw a longitudinal line connecting the two
landmarks.
– Starting at roughly 12cm along and slightly posterior
to this line, use a hand-held Doppler to identify the
perforators. Ensure these are proximal to the inferior
border of the gastrocnemius.
– Mark the chosen perforator(s) using a clear ‘x’ and/or
number.
– Mark the anterior border of the ap.
– Adjust the ap markings to ensure the perforator in the
centre or upper edge of the ap depending on the laxity

of skin and ap design [4]. If pedicle length is a priority, the perforator can also be located towards the distal
aspect of the ap to lengthen the pedicle as much as
possible.
Flap Design: Key Points
• Design the skin island of the MSAP free ap in a slightly
oblique but predominantly longitudinal direction, to capture interconnecting choke vessels between the perforasomes of the lower limb [43].
• Limit the ap width to less than 6cm width to enable primary closure [19].
– Some series have suggested a ap width of up to 8cm
can also routinely enable direct closure with generally
mild risk of donor site wound dehiscence [2, 5].
• Wherever possible use ipsilateral donor and recipient
sites to restrict the dressings, scarring, pain and rehabilitation to a single limb.
– This will still allow for a two-team approach if neces-
sary, for shortened operative time and the use of a single tourniquet [4]. However, if there has been high
energy trauma with diffuse soft tissue damage, the
medial calf may be within the zone of trauma and preclude this, requiring harvest from the contralateral leg
in these cases.
40.5 Flap Raise/Elevation: AStep-by-Step
Guide
Positioning
• Position the patient supine with the thigh abducted, knee
exed and lower leg externally rotated, so the medial
aspect of the calf is easily accessed.

Tourniquet
• Use of a mid-thigh tourniquet is recommended.
– If used, exsanguinate the lower leg only by elevation for
1min, rather than using an eshmark, to maintain ll of
venae comitantes and permit better visualization of the
perforators.
Incision (Fig.40.3)
• Make the anterior incision rst.
• Be sure not to place this incision too posterior, as this
would risk missing or injuring the perforators
immediately.
• Incise down to fascia overlying the medial gastrocnemius
muscle.
Identication of the Perforator(s)
• Identify and preserve any perforator passing through the
subcutaneous tissue, however small initially, as this may
be your main perforator.
• Take care to identify whether the perforator travels supra-
fascially along the muscle fascia prior to perforating
through the supercial fascia.
– This can necessitate raising a wide skin paddle to keep
the perforator central to the skin paddle, thus impacting donor site primary closure.
• Make an exploratory incision in the anterior aspect of the
gastrocnemius fascia.
• Visualize and conrm perforator location and adequacy
of size.
• Endoscope-assisted identication of the perforator(s) has
been described but is not common practice [44].

perforators, with predominantly supra-fascial course
Dissection
• Trace the course of the perforator through the medial gas-
trocnemius muscle by longitudinally splitting the supercial muscle bres (Fig.40.4).
• After a short supercial course, the vessel deepens down
into the belly of gastrocnemius muscle giving multiple
branches in all directions.
• Use careful bipolar dissection with a ‘deroong’ tech-
nique with ‘ligaclipping’ and heat-sink diathermy of multiple side branches within the muscle.
– Meticulous ligation/clipping of these tiny intra-
muscular branches is mandatory to avoid intramuscular haematoma in the immediate post-operative
period.
• Dissect the pedicle retrogradely to the medial sural artery
or until adequate pedicle length is achieved.
• Once the required length and calibre of pedicle vessel
have been dissected, the posterior border of the ap is
incised and the ap islanded on the pedicle(s).
Fig. 40.4 Pedicle dissection. Main pedicle dissected free with longitudinal muscle-splitting dissection and ligaclipping of multiple side
branches along its length. Two main perforators supply the skin paddle
• Once your pedicle dissection is complete and ap perfusion is conrmed, template the skin paddle to the defect
and make the posterior incision, isolating the ap on the
pedicle(s).
• Divide the pedicle proximally at the origin from the popliteal artery (Fig.40.5).
Additional Flap Considerations
• If it is felt an additional vein will be required, ensure the
small saphenous vein, which is normally located 3 cm
from the dominant perforator [45], is protected throughout and included in the ap.

– Likewise, if a chimeric ap is required, an additional bulk
of gastrocnemius muscle, plantaris tendon or sural nerve
may be harvested as part of the ap too.
389
– Days 1–5: Elevation of the operated/recipient leg for
5days.
– Day 5: Begin dangling the limb for 5min within a 1h
period. Increase the period dangling by 5 min each
hour, 10min in the second hour, 15min in the third
hour, until the leg is down for 30min within the sixth
hour.
• Laser Doppler perfusion imaging may be a valuable
adjunct for post-operative ap monitoring if available,
with the highest relative perfusion in the perforator zone
of the ap between days 1 and 5 post-operatively [46].
40.6 Core Surgical Techniques inFlap
Dissection
• Position the patient on the operating table before mapping
the perforators with the Doppler ultrasound.
• Use safe dissection technique for deroong the pedicle
and using heatsink bipolar and ligaclipping of multiple
muscular branches throughout.
• Reassess and modify the nal ap design after the
perforator(s) are identied and dissected fully, with
release of the prior to disconnecting the ap.
• Harvest a segment of the short saphenous vein to provide
the option for additional venous drainage, for use as both
a free and pedicled ap [47].
• Avoid using the MSAP ap if it is required to be greater
than 6m width, to avoid the need for skin graft, which
is unsightly and can result in tethered and poor quality
scar [48].
40.7 Clinical Scenarios
Closure
• Close the donor site primarily in layers (Fig.40.6).
• Direct closure of the donor site is preferred as skin grafting to the calf compromises the aesthetics of the
reconstruction.
• Place a low vacuum suction drain (to stay in place until
draining <30mL/24h).
Post-operative Care
• Each department may have a different post-operative
regime based on personal experience.
• The protocol must be exible to the appearance and
behaviour of the ap based on judicial clinical
examination.
• An example of a post-operative regime for lower limb
reconstruction may include:
40.7.1 Case 1
40.7.1.1 Partial Glossectomy Reconstruction
GeorgeOrfaniotis
A 46-year-old female underwent left partial glossectomy
for a T2N0M0 SCC from her left tongue. The resultant
defect was reconstructed with a free MSAP ap, which
was based on a single perforator and anastomosed to superior thyroid artery and a branch of the internal jugular vein.
The tumor resection and ap inset were performed transorally, with no requirement for a mandibular split. At
1week post- operatively she was able to eat a soft diet and
her speech was intelligible and easily understandable. At
4months post- operatively the patient was back to her job
as a motivational speaker and was also able to run 10K
(Fig.40.7).

GeorgeOrfaniotis
A 62-year-old male with an invasive T4N1M0 pharyngeal
SCC underwent total laryngo-pharyngectomy and bilateral
neck dissection levels II–VI.Reconstruction was with a chimeric free MSAP ap with two skin paddles and a segment
of gastrocnemius muscle, each based on their own individual
skin paddle, with the segment of the gastrocnemius muscle
secured on top of this as extra waterproong layer, also
reducing the dead space. The second MSAP skin paddle was
used to facilitate skin closure as well as to allow clinical ap
monitoring. The ap was anastomosed to the right facial vessels, using a Cook-Schwartz Doppler probe to aid postoperative venous monitoring (Fig.40.8).

Arthritis
DariushNikkhah and BernardLuczak
A 45-year-old man with diabetes developed septic arthritis of
the ankle. After surgical debridement he had an exposed
sue coverage and tailored to the defect. This MSAP free ap
was anastomosed to the anterior tibial artery and great saphenous vein, providing a stable reconstruction with minimal
bulk and good contour to enable footwear. He had an
uneventful post-operative recovery (Fig.40.9).

40.8 Pearls andPitfalls
Pearls
• Incise the anterior border of the ap, with single
incision in the fascia, to identify the perforator(s)
before committing to your skin island.
• This ap can be raised with multiple very small size
perforators, therefore preserve all options until the
anatomy is revealed. If one is not comfortable with
small size intra-muscular perforator dissection then
an alternative ap option should be considered.
• The course of the perforator is always intramuscu-
lar and will require careful, often tedious, dissection
using careful techniques described above.
• Flaps raised with a single small perforator may suf-
fer from venous congestion. If the VCs are too small
the venae commitantes. (c) Defect closure after MSAP ap inset with a
low vacuum suction drain and separate Yates drain to reduce the risk of
haematoma. Note the low prole of the ap to allow optimal contour of
the medial malleolus and future footwear.
or damaged during dissection then the ap can be
venous supercharged with the short saphenous vein
(SSV). With careful dissection during the posterior
incision, small branches of the SSV draining the
ap can be preserved, and a good length of the SSV
can be harvested proximally.
• Perform the dissection under tourniquet control
without full exsanguination of the limb.
• Perform dissection under loupe magnication and
preserve motor nerve branches to the gastrocnemius
muscle. This can also be harvested as a nerve graft
in a chimeric ap, if required.
• In cases of intra-oral reconstruction wait until the
resection has nished before committing to the posterior incision. A template should be used with
approximately the same thickness of the ap—such

40 Medial Sural Artery Perforator Flap
as sterile blue sponge. The template should be measured accurately from the defect taking into consideration the three-dimensional conguration of
intra-oral defects, as well as the extra tissue required
to create the lingual sulcus.
• The template then is transferred to the calf and
centred on the marked skin perforator. The skin
flap should exactly match the template whilst
still attached to its pedicle. Attempts to remove
additional tissue once the flap is inset should be
avoided as the perforator can be accidentally
damaged or cause bleeding. If the flap was made
larger than needed, then the reconstruction will
be bulkier compromising the functional
outcome.
Pitfalls
• Committing to your skin paddle before visualizing
and conrming your perforator(s).
• Placing the rst incision too posterior and missing
or injuring the perforator from the outset.
• Damaging the pedicle during dissection of its long
intramuscular course—good retraction, ligaclips,
heat sink bipolar technique and deroong technique
are vital to avoid perforator damage.
• Closing the fascia over the muscle—this may
increase the risk of compartment syndrome in the
case of haematoma post-operatively.
• Attempting to close the donor site directly if the
width of the ap is more than 6cm—use an alternative ap if this is the case, to avoid an unacceptable
donor site morbidity due to wound breakdown or
use of a skin graft.

Martínez- Soriano F. The medial sural artery perforator
free ap. Plast Reconstr Surg. 2001;108(6):1609–17.
• Summary: This is the rst description of the free MSAP
ap in the literature, based on cadaveric studies and clinical case series and focused on its use for lower limb
reconstruction. Based on 10 cadaveric leg dissections, a
mean of 2.2 perforators (range, 1–4) from the medial
sural artery were noted over the medial gastrocnemius
muscle, clustered 9–18cm from the popliteal crease. A
series of six successful clinical cases, including ve free
393
aps and one pedicled ap for ipsilateral lower-leg and
foot reconstruction, demonstrated that while the dissection is somewhat tedious, the vascular pedicle can be considerably long and of suitable calibre with minimal
donor-site morbidity.

ap: a new classication system of intra-muscular branching patterns. J Plast Reconstr Aesthet Surg.
2014;67:1267–75.
• Summary: The objective of this study was to determine the
pattern of intra-muscular course of the MSAP ap pedicle. Fourteen cadaveric specimens were dissected and CT
angiograms of 84 legs were examined. Three types of
arterial branching pattern were identied within the
medial gastrocnemius, demonstrating one (31%), two
(59%) or three or more (10%) main branches. A dominant
perforator from the medial sural artery was present in
92% of anatomical specimens (13/14). Vertically, the
location of the perforator from the popliteal crease was
on average 13cm (±2 cm). Transversely, the perforator
originated 2.5 cm (±1 cm) from the posterior midline.
Using CT angiography it was possible in ten consecutive
patients to identify a more supercial intra-muscular
branch and determine the leg with the optimal branching
pattern type for ap harvest.

W.Functional outcomes of the medial sural artery perforator ap in oral cavity reconstruction. Ann Plast Surg.
2020;85(3):256–9.
• Summary: This study assessed functional outcomes in
patients with oral cavity tumors reconstructed with
MSAP aps, including speech and swallowing. Of the 38
patients included, 84.2% had intelligible speech at
6-month follow- up and further improvement at 1 year
(92.1%). All patients resumed feeding on postoperative
day 4, and only 7.8% (n = 3) of the patients required
assistance with feeding at 1-year follow-up. Thus the
authors conclude that the MSAP ap provides adequate
small-volume replacement for oral cavity reconstructions, with most patients achieving a full diet with no
restrictions by 1year after reconstruction and excellent
speech with little or no need for repetition in
conversation.

D. Reissis et al.
There was one case of partial ap necrosis and no incidences of donor site dehiscence. All patients returned to
full ambulation and none required subsequent ap revision. This study demonstrates the versatility of the free
MSAP ap in reconstructing defects around the ankle
area, by providing a thin, pliable, single stage and robust
reconstruction, with a cosmetically ideal donor site.

41.1 Introduction
The bula free ap (FFF) provides well-vascularised bone
for the microsurgical reconstruction of defects following
trauma or cancer. It was rst described in 1975 by Taylor [1]
for the reconstruction of two large traumatic tibial defects.
Its rst use in head and neck reconstruction occurred later in
1989 by Hidalgo [2] and it has since become the gold standard for the reconstruction of composite midface and oromandibular defects involving the intraoral mucosa (lining),
mandibular bone and external skin (cover) [3].
Originally described as a purely osseous ap, the FFF can
also be raised as an osteofasciocutaneous ap by including a
skin paddle, which may also be sensate. It provides large
calibre vessels with a long vascular pedicle and enough bone
length (25cm) to reconstruct near-total mandibular defects
and withstand irradiation, with minimal long-term donor site
morbidity [2]. Furthermore, the endosteal and periosteal
blood supply safely permits multiple osteotomies, and the
donor site is far away from the head and neck area to allow a
two-team surgical approach.

41.2 Anatomy
41.2.1 Bony
The lower extremity long bones include the principal weightbearing tibia and the more slender bula. Proximally, the
bular head articulates with the lateral condyle of the tibia
while distally the bula forms the lateral component of the
ankle mortice. The syndesmosis between the distal bula and
tibia is essential in maintaining the stability of the ankle mortise and, thus, should be respected when planning ap harvest. At the bular neck, the common peroneal nerve passes
from the popliteal fossa, lateral to bula and into the lateral
compartment of the lower leg. Care should be taken when
dissecting at this level.
41.2.2 Fascial
Four fascial compartments dene the lower leg: anterior, lateral, supercial posterior and deep posterior compartments
(Fig. 41.1). The anterior and deep posterior compartments
are separated by the interosseous membrane, while the anterior and posterior crural intermuscular septa separate the lateral compartment from the anterior and posterior
compartments respectively.

41.2.3 Vascular
The FFF is supplied by the peroneal artery (branching from
the tibio-peroneal trunk) and its venae commitantes. The overlying skin is supplied by septocutaneous perforators, carried in
the posterior crural intermuscular septum, which should be
protected in osteofasciocutaneous aps. Musculocutaneous
perforators through the exor hallucis longus and soleus muscles may also be additionally present. A skin paddle of
8×15cm may be based on these perforators.
