BALAGUER-CAMBRA, J. et al. DIEP flap for forearm reconstruction: case report. Cir. plást. iberolatinoam. [online]. 2015, vol.41, n.2, pp.191-196. ISSN 1989-2055.  https://dx.doi.org/10.4321/S0376-78922015000200011.

Complex injuries in upper limb like fractures and forearm circumferential skin loss involving are a double reconstructive challenge. We show a case management in a patient with combined injuries in the upper limb because of entrapment by industrial rollers, using deep inferior epigastric perforator free flap (DIEP) after treatment of an articular fracture of distal radius guided by arthroscopy. Was achieved stabilization of fractures and complete coverage of the defect, with good acceptance of the donor site by the patient. DIEP flap provides coverage for large areas with low morbidity and good aesthetic result.
