Abstract

Three cats with wide skin defect in distal portion of hindleg by traffic accident underwent reconstructive surgery with axial pattern skin flap preserving the caudal superficial epigastric artery and vein. In these cases, pads were not damaged by the accident. In case 1 with the widest pedicle, no necrosis at the pedicle was observed, while in cases 2 and 3, partial necrosis was found 4 days and 7 days after operation, respectively, indicating narrow skin flap and thinner pediculate portion may cause the necrosis. However, those grafted skin was taken. As a result, if complete damage on circulation was not found during at least 4 days postoperation, the grafted skin may be taken.
