Abstract

A case of failure of a free radial forearm flap is presented. It is surmised that this was due to venous thrombosis in the cephalic vein which showed evidence of recanalization of an old thrombus. The patient had received intravenous erythromycin some months previously. © Wiley‐Liss, Inc.
