摘要

The first pedicled gracilis flap was described by Pickrell in 1952 in pediatric perineal reconstruction [1]. Orticochea in 1972 described a pedicled myocutaneous flap for distal third lower extremity defect with subsequent division in 4–6 weeks [2]. Use of the gracilis as a free flap was then expanded upon in 1976 when Harri reported a series of gracilis flaps used to address dynamic reconstruction of facial paralysis, launching the adoption of the gracilis muscle as a well-described flap [3].
