To primarily repair a series of radial forearm flap donor defects, a total of 10 bilobed flaps based on the fasciocutaneous perforator of the ulnar artery were designed at the Chang Gung Memorial Hospital in Kaohsiung in the period from January of 2002 to January of 2003. All patients were male, with ages ranging from 36 to 67 years. The forearm donor defects ranged in size from 5 x 6 cm to 8 x 8 cm, with the average defect being 47 cm. One to three sizable perforators from the ulnar artery were consistently observed in the distal forearm and were most frequently located 8 cm proximal to the pisiform, which could be used as a pivot point for the bilobed flap. The bilobed flap consisted of two lobes, one large lobe and one small lobe. With elevation and rotation of the bilobed flap, the large lobe of the flap was used to repair the radial forearm donor defect and the small lobe was used to close the resultant defect from the large lobe. All bilobed flaps survived completely, without major complications, and no skin grafting was necessary. Compared with conventional methods for reconstruction of radial forearm donor defects, such as split-thickness skin grafting, the major advantage of this technique is its ability to reconstruct the donor defect with adjacent tissue in a one-stage operation. Forearm donor-site morbidity can be minimized with earlier hand motion, and better cosmetic results can be obtained. Furthermore, because a skin graft is not used, no additional donor area is necessary. However, this flap is suitable for closure of only small or medium-size donor defects. A lengthy postoperative scar is its major disadvantage.
