Objective To investigate the closing method of wound after removalof the traditional pedicled abdominal flap. Methods Accordingto the design,the pedicled abdominal flaps were cut and lifted, and then the incision were extended from both sides on base of the flap to anterior superior iliac spine, respectively. After separating on superficial fascia, two flaps were obtained. The wound of donor site was closed completely by these two pedicled flaps. Twelvepatients with skin defects on hands or forearms were treated using the reformedmethod of traditional pedicled abdominal flap.
