ABSTRACT
Fibularis brevis grafts have been extensively used, especially as distally-based grafts, to cover defects in the lower leg and foot. The study has contributed to analyze the blood supply of the fibularis brevis muscle and the vascular basis of its possible different grafts. Both legs of twelve preserved cadavers, without congenital vascular anomalies, were utilized in the study. Fibularis brevis was exposed in all selected legs along with the verification of different arterial pedicles. The total means and standard deviations of the length and width of the muscle together with diameters of major vessels were calculated. Total length and width of middle portion of fibularis brevis were at means of 28.7±0.4 cm and 3±0.02 cm respectively. The upper and middle portions of the muscle were supplied by the fibular and the anterior tibial artery. The middle portion was supplemented by the upper perforating branch of the posterior tibial artery. The lower portion of the muscle was supplied by the lower perforating branch of the posterior tibial and the periosteal arteries. The muscle could be used as a proximally or distally based flap, free vascularized muscle graft, free vascularized osteo-muscular flap, and distally-based split flap. It can be split completely into two flaps; each of which can be used as a proximally or distally.
RESUMEN
Los injertos de músculo fibularis brevis son usados ampliamente, especialmente como injertos de base distal, para cubrir defectos en la parte inferior de la pierna y el pie. El objetivo de este estudio fue analizar el suministro de sangre del músculo fibularis brevis y la base vascular de los posibles diferentes injertos. Para el estudio se utilizaron ambas piernas de 12 cadáveres preservados, sin anomalías vasculares congénitas. El músculo fibularis brevis fue encontrado en todas las piernas junto con los diferentes pedículos arteriales. Se calcularon las medias totales y las desviaciones estándar de la longitud y el ancho del músculo, junto con los diámetros de los vasos principales. La longitud y el ancho totales de la porción media del músculo fibularis brevis fueron de 28,7±0,4 cm y 3±0,02 cm, respectivamente. Las partes superior y media del músculo estaban suplidas vascularmente por la arteria fibular y la arteria tibial anterior. La parte media se complementó con la rama perforante superior de la arteria tibial posterior. La parte inferior del músculo fue suplida por una rama perforante inferior de la arteria tibial posterior y las arterias periósticas. El músculo podría usarse como un colgajo de base proximal o distal, injerto de músculo vascularizado libre, colgajo osteomuscular vascularizado libre y colgajo dividido distal. Se puede dividir por completo en dos colgajos; cada uno de estos puede ser utilizado como proximal o distal.
