Reconstructing complex abdominal wall defects is challenging. This study shows that various pedicled flaps, including superficial inferior epigastric artery, tensor fascia lata, and anterolateral thigh flaps, offer effective single-stage solutions for diverse defects.

Area of Science:

Plastic Surgery
Reconstructive Surgery
Abdominal Wall Reconstruction

Background:

Complex abdominal wall defects pose significant reconstructive challenges.
Previous methods may be complex or require multiple stages.

Purpose of the Study:

To describe the use of three distinct pedicled flaps for abdominal wall reconstruction.
To evaluate the effectiveness of single-stage reconstructions for varied abdominal defects.

Main Methods:

Case series detailing three abdominal wall reconstructions.
Utilized superficial inferior epigastric artery flap, tensor fascia lata flap, and anterolateral thigh flap.
Described single-stage surgical techniques.
