Meningomyelocele reconstruction is a lifesaving procedure. A freestyle propeller perforator flap is an ideal option for moderate to large soft tissue meningomyelocele reconstruction. Previous studies that focused on the reliability of perforator flaps for meningomyelocele reconstruction recommended preserving a cuff of soft tissue around the perforators to avoid vasospasm. This method is a very conservative approach in comparison to the recently well-established principles of pedicled perforator flap dissection. In this study, we used a dissection ladder approach. In this method, the pedicle is freed by just islanding the pedicle, skeletonization of the perforator, or further dissection of the perforators beyond the muscles, based on intraoperatively monitoring of the flap.
