Donor sites for radial forearm flaps: a direct comparison of closure with a local “hatchet” flap and split thickness skin grafts in a single patient

We read the article by Pabst et al1 with interest. Morbidity at the donor site of radial forearm flaps (RFF) has been the subject of much discussion, and we would like to describe a direct comparison of two techniques of closure in a single patient (Taylor et al. Radial forearm flap donor sites − A direct comparison of local hatchet flap closure versus split thickness skin grafting in a single patient. Presented at the British Association of Head and Neck Oncologists Annual Scientific Meeting, London, 2018). (Source: The British Journal of Oral and Maxillofacial Surgery)
