ALLEN, R. J. e PONS, G. Gluteal artery perforator flaps: S-GAP and I-GAP. Cir. plást. iberolatinoam. [online]. 2006, vol.32, n.4, pp.259-268. ISSN 1989-2055.
The evolution of free tissue transfer has progressed to the level of the perforator flaps. They allow the transfer of the patients own skin and fat in a reliable way with minimal donor-site morbidity. Nowadays the gluteal artery perforator flaps, superior (S-GAP) and inferior (I-GAP), have gained popularity due to reliability, preservation of the muscle, versatility in flap design without restricting other flap options, and lower donor-site morbidity. Anatomy of the gluteal region, flap raising technique and specific indications will be well-described.
