The congenital popliteal vasculature patterns in fibular free flap reconstruction by means of surgical anatomy in cadavers

Abstract Fibular free flap (FFF) is frequently used for reconstruction requiring vascularized bone. Thus, understanding its vasculature variation is crucial. This study investigates the popliteal artery branching variations in Thai cadavers and compares them with previous studies. One hundred and si...
