Title: Tensor fascia lata musculocutaneous flap for abdominal wall reconstruction

Abstract

We report a case of abdominal wall reconstruction following excision of irradiated skin and a ventral hernia. A very large tensor fascia lata musculocutaneous flap was used with good results. The anatomical features of this flap make it an excellent method of abdominal wall reconstruction.
