Abstract
Plastic surgeons expertise is requested for treatment of vascular graft exposures. Exposure within the femoral triangle (Scarpa) represents the majority of those cases. We intend to share our experience in the coverage of exposed vascular grafts : through the most common and safe procedures we are currently using, illustrated by some of our clinical cases. Our experience leaded us to formulate some guidelines and conclusions, to ensure vascular surgeons that coverage of a vascular graft can always be successfully done.
