Objective:
Application of anterior lateral thigh flap (ALT) polyfoliate perforator flap for lower extremity soft tissue defect.

Results:
There were 21 cases in this clinical application and the necrosis in distal part of two flaps were treated by free grafting. The other 19 flaps survived completely and the contour and function were satisfied.
Conclusion:
ALT polyfoliate perforator flap could repair the complicated body surface soft tissue defect economically.
