Tensor fascia lata flap is a workhorse for defects after inguinal lymph node block dissection

Abstract

Having in mind that TFL presents as a flap of adjustable size, length, shape, and volume, with negligible donor site morbidity, and after comparing of our results to those of other authors, we advise broader use of TFL flap. As a reliable flap, not too difficult to harvest, with a low complication rate, it must be taken into consideration regarding the benefits for the patient, and, on the other hand, the surgery cost and duration.
