He underwent wide local excision and reconstruction with combined free anterolateral thigh (ALT) and tensor fascia latae (TFL) flap using intraflap flow-through anastomoses. The designed flap was 20 × 11 cm in size; however, the flap pedicles of the ALT perforators were smaller than expected. Considering that the ALT perforators would not have yielded a sufficient perforasome, we included TFL perforator...

Our primary outcome was postoperative...
