Anatomical Analysis of the Superior Gluteal Artery in 100 Women for Superior Gluteal Artery Perforator Flap Breast Reconstruction
The branching position of the main-SGA trunk, perforating location of the SGAP, and the shape of the deep branch were classified in detail in 100 patients. By creating a surgical plan that understands the anatomy taking preoperative three-dimensional computed tomography angiography, the SGAP flap can accommodate many patterns, increasing the possibility of safe execution.
