- ArticleMorris AM, Buchan AC.Br J Plast Surg. 1978 Apr;31(2):138-42.In a series of 165 cross-leg flaps, 94 per cent were successful. Some degree of necrosis occurred in almost half of them. Major necrosis requiring split-skin grafting occurred in less than one-fifth. Thrombo-embolic complications were rare and mainly in the older age group. The retunr of sensation was good; better in the flap than in the donor site. The long-term results were good with a low complication rate. On weight-bearing surfaces the cross-leg flap skin stands up well to wear and tear.
