Closure of massive soft-tissue defects in patients undergoing forequarter amputation for shoulder-girdle tumors may present a daunting challenge. This report describes two patients whose forequarter amputations were closed using ipsilateral, lymphedematous, circumferential forearm fasciocutaneous free flaps.
