Abstract
In microsurgery, the successful salvage of free tissue transfer is dependent on the rapid decision to return to the operating room. Therefore, a free flap monitoring protocol is presented, including checking color, temperature, capillary return, and signal from a handheld Doppler ultrasonograph in an intraoperatively marked skin area directly over the pedicle.Mesh：
