Résumé

For major upper limb defects, a wide range of established pedicled and free flap options can be used. These include the latissimus dorsi/thoracodorsal artery perforator, lateral arm, posterior interosseous artery, rectus abdominis, gracilis, and anterolateral thigh flaps. Technical proficiency is essential, and favorable success rates in terms of functional and esthetic outcomes can be achieved. Herein, alternative flap options (both pedicled and free) are introduced and discussed through a few illustrative case examples.
