Özet

Background The torsion of the flap's pedicle is one of the most common conditions causing vascular compromise. We aimed to compare the resistance to torsion of axial flap pedicle and perforator pedicle patterns. In the second part of the study, we investigated whether the delay phenomenon is an effective method for improving perforator flap resistance to pedicle torsion.
