Re-introducing the delto-acromial perforator flap: clinical experience and cadaver dissection

Although perforator flaps from the pectoral branch of the thoraco-acromial (TA) axis have been well-described, there are few reports of perforator flaps based on the delto-acromial (DA) branches. We have found a reliable perforator coming off the DA branch of the TA axis, and have named a flap based on this vessel the delto-acromial perforator (DAP) flap. We describe our experience with the DAP flap together with a fresh cadaver anatomical study.
