The flap dissections
should be performed in an orderly manner in
order not to damage other flaps in the same
region with consequent loss of opportunity to
study that anatomy. Before starting the dissection
of a flap ensure that you know your landmarks
well; if not ask a member of the faculty. Make
sure you understand fully the anatomy of a flap
before moving on to the next one as there will
be plenty of time for dissection. This list is not exhaustive but represents the typical range of flaps
