Anatomy of Deltoid Flap Based on Posterior Subcutaneous Deltoid Artery: A Cadaveric Investigation

The purpose of the study is to evaluate neurovascular anatomy of the deltoid flap based on the posterior subcutaneous deltoid artery (PSDA). Bilateral axillary artery dissections of the thirty-four shoulders of 17 formalin-fixed cadavers were performed (15 male, 2 female; age range 40 to 82 years) u...
