ABSTRACT
Methods@#To explore the transplantation of flow-through anterolateral thigh flap combined with fibular flap for reconstruction of composite tissue defect at leg.@*Method@#12 cases with leg composite tissue defects were reconstructed by flow-through anterolateral thigh flaps combined with fibular flaps. The skin defects ranged from 6 cm×12 cm to 12 cm×20 cm. The bone defects were 4-10 cm in length.The size of flow-through anterolateral thigh flaps was 14 cm×8 cm to 23 cm×13 cm and the fibular osteocutaneous flaps were 6 cm×4 cm to 12 cm×6 cm. The fibular bone was harvested as 7 cm to 13 cm in length.@*Results@#All the flaps survived in 12 cases. Bony reunion was achieved in all the cases. Vascular crisis happened in 2 cases 1 day after operation. Margin necrosis occurred in distal end of one flap, which healed after dressing. All the flaps had soft texture with satisfactory cosmetic and functional result . There was no complication in donor sites.@*Conclusions@#Flow-through anterolateral thigh flap combined with fibular flap can reconstruct soft tissue defect and bone defect simultaneously. It is the ideal method for leg composite tissue defects.
