A
) Pig model propeller flap pedicled on intercostal perforator “
p
,” with corresponding in situ thermogram below (left), flap appearance after counterclockwise rotation, with thermogram below predicting superior perfusion (right). (
B
) Same pig model propeller flap (left), with instead clockwise rotation, with thermogram below that had similar darker colored surface area implying that a counterclockwise rotation would be preferable (right).
