Tensor Fascia Lata (TFL) flap is a flap with small volume of muscle on its proximal portion and a thin fasciocutaneous flap on its distal portion. TFL flap in this case was designed in a V-shaped pattern and an extended double folding TFL flap was used in order to cover the sore with a large amount of soft tissue. There is no sign of recurrences after 3 months follow-up. This is a good method for covering trochanteric pressure sores. Check the case and add your valuable opinion.
