Aesthetic outcome of biquadrangular and Hueston dorsal flaps in digital mucous cyst surgery

Both biquadrangular and Hueston flaps yield comparable aesthetic satisfaction and clinical outcomes after surgical excision of digital mucous cysts. Flap selection does not appear to influence scar quality or postoperative complications and may therefore be guided by surgeon preference, anatomical considerations and patient expectations.

Abstract

Both biquadrangular and Hueston flaps yield comparable aesthetic satisfaction and clinical outcomes after surgical excision of digital mucous cysts. Flap selection does not appear to influence scar quality or postoperative complications and may therefore be guided by surgeon preference, anatomical considerations and patient expectations.
