In 6\nquail (group I), an axial pattern flap was created from\nthe skin of the lateral aspect of the thorax and\nadvanced over the sternal defect. In 8 quail (group II),\na flap was similarly created and advanced but the flap\nvasculature was ligated. All quail were euthanatized at\n14 days after surgery and had necropsies performed.\nSections of the flap and the surrounding tissue were\nexamined histologically to assess flap viability.<\/jats:p>\n\t\t\t\t<jats:p>\n\t\t\t\t\t<jats:bold>Results<\/jats:bold>\u2014All axial pattern flaps in group-I quail had\n100% survival. In group II, mean percentage area of\nflap survival was 62.5%; mean area of necrosis and\ndermal fibrosis of flaps were significantly greater than\nthat detected in group I. In flaps of group-II quail, neovascularization\nin the deep dermis and profound\nnecrosis of the vascular plexus in the superficial dermis\nwere observed.<\/jats:p>\n\t\t\t\t<jats:p>\n\t\t\t\t\t<jats:bold>Conclusions and Clinical Relevance<\/jats:bold>\u2014Results indicated\nthat the caudal external thoracic artery axial pattern\nflap could be used successfully in the treatment\nof surgically created sternal cutaneous defects in\nquail with no signs of tissue necrosis or adverse\neffects overall. Use of this technique to treat selfmutilation\nsyndromes or application after surgical\ndebulking of tumors or other masses might be beneficial\nin many avian species.
