Ten cases of soft tissue defect at palm orwrist were repaired by reversed fasciocutaneousflap from the forearm. All were. survived excepttwo cases having necrosis of the distal portion ofthe graft. The blood supply of the skin of the fore-arm was comming from the perforation fasciocuta-neous and musculocutaneous giving rise from theulna , radial and interosseous arteries. Therefore ,when the flap was designed,it was best to have thefascial pedicle over the arterial trunks in order toinclude more perforating arteries in the flap . It was indicated that venous supply might also played an important role in flap nutrition.
