Abstract
Advances in the field of microsurgical reconstruction have focused on decreasing donor site morbidity and increasing the function and aesthetics of the reconstructed site. Since the advent of perforator flap surgery, most of these expectations have been satisfied. On the other hand, we need refinements in the surgical techniques and clinical reports studying these flaps. In the future, the clinical use of these flaps and the familiarity of surgeons will increase; perforator flap reconstruction will be as reliable as other types of free flaps.
