Ten dogs with caudal superficial epigastric axial pattern flap reconstruction of extensive skin defects were reviewed. Nine dogs had complete survival of the flap. In one dog, a small area of necrosis occurred near the flap tip. Other complications included seroma formation (n=3), partial incisional dehiscence (n=3), flap edema (n=9), and bruising (n=7). Use of the caudal superficial epigastric axial pattern flap provided full-thickness skin coverage of extensive skin defects of the rear limb and inguinal region, with relatively minor complications that were amenable to conservative management.

Achieving coverage after digital injury is crucial, because simple skin defects can expose essential structures such as tendons or bones. This is particularly true on the dorsal surfaces of the digits, where the skin provides the only protection for the tendons. However, longitudinal skin defects of the digit have not been specifically identified in the literature and there have been few reports focusing on longitudinal dorsal skin defects. Here we report on the use of a bipedicle flap for reconstruction of complex longitudinal dorsal tissue defects of the digits, including those associated with tendon or bone damage.
