The authors present an account on a patient with extensive damage of the tissue in the area of the right groin with complete severing of the artery and vein. After control of the infections they reconstructed the arterial supply and skin cover in one stage. They used a PTFE prosthesis with an extraanatomical localization and a muculocutaneous flap formed from the musculus rectus abdominis on a caudal stalk.
