Free Tissue Transfer of the Lateral Thigh and Anterolateral Thigh

The anterolateral thigh (ALT) flap is a versatile flap with broad indications, and it can cover almost any defect in the body from head to foot. It has become a workhorse flap in reconstructive plastic surgery and has a very high success rate of more than 95% when performed by an experienced team. This activity outlines the use of ALT flaps in reconstructive microsurgery and highlights the role of the interprofessional team in managing patients with difficult and chronic non-healing wounds.
