摘要：
Wide and irregular-shaped defects at the lower trunk region are not uncommon following wide local excision of tumors. Pedicled anterolateral thigh (ALT) perforator flap has been the workhorse for these types of defects. But, in most of the cases flap donor sites cannot be closed primarily due to wide and irregular-shaped flap requirement. We propose a method of harvesting ALT flap in elliptical shape, dividing it into two or more geometrically predesigned islands based on perforators and rearranging them to fit into the defect, and thus achieving primary closure of the flap donor site.
