Abstract
This study confirms the low aesthetic and functional donor site morbidity of the free gracilis muscle flap. The aftermath of the donor area of the flap are very well accepted by patients, which is a sign of good acceptance of the whole reconstruction. Because of these findings and the suitability of the flap at the recipient site, the gracilis muscle free flap should be part of the armamentarium of any reconstructive surgeon.
