    (2019) Mangelsdorff, Gunther; Cuevas, Pedro; Ramon Rodriguez, Jose; Pereira, Nicolas; Ramirez, Enrica; Yanez, Ricardo
    Background Primary closure of the donor-site after harvest of a large anterolateral thigh flap (ALT) is associated with significant morbidity. Incisional negative pressure therapy (INPT) may decrease complications in high-risk incisions. This study assessed if the incidence of complications after primary closure of the ALT flap donor-site decreases with INPT.
