Abstract | The reconstruction of trochanteric defects presents a challenge to the reconstructive surgeon. There have been a number of locoregional reconstructive options described in the literature. These include flaps based on the lateral circumflex femoral artery and its branches, such as the tensor fascia lata, vastus lateralis (VL), anterolateral thigh (ALT) flaps. The present case further complicated this challenge as the patient had multiple recurrences of a sarcoma overlying the trochanteric region, with previous surgical resections, reconstruction and radiotherapy. The present case study describes an approach to harvesting the VL flap in a patient with previously harvested ALT. |
