Abstract
The free fillet lower leg flap was applied for immediate reconstruction after hemipelvectomy including the overlying soft tissue and the internal and external iliac vessels. The flap, harvested from the amputated lower extremity, is a versatile reconstructive technique for such a large pelvic defect.
