The rectus abdominis flap is favored for this application because of its ease of harvest and reliability. It has been used extensively as both a pedicled and free flap for breast reconstruction. It can be harvested as a muscle-only flap or as a myocutaneous flap.lthough not optimal for small or shallow defects, the rectus flap provides the reconstructive surgeon with an excellent option to reconstruct large defects. This flap is most commonly used for glossectomy defects, orbital/maxillary defects, and (as a muscle-only flap) skull base reconstruction.
Types of triangles based on their sides. 1  An EQUILATERAL triangle has all three sides the same length. 2  An ISOSCELES triangle has two sides with the same length. 3  A SCALENE triangle has all three sides different lengths.
Try to establish a triangle that is not scalene. Sometimes called an irregular triangle. Scalene triangles are triangles where each side is a different length. They are unusual in that the are defined by what they are not. Most triangles drawn at random would be scalene. The interior angles of a scalene triangle are always all different. The converse of this is also true - If all three angles are different, then the triangle is scalene, and all the sides are different lengths.
