Reconstruction of complicated diabetic lower leg and foot defects involving multiple tissue components remains a challenge. The purpose of this report is to introduce thoracodorsal artery perforator (TDAP) chimeric flaps for reconstructing diabetic lower leg and foot soft tissue defects. ⋯ The TDAP chimeric flap may be another option for the complicated and complex wound coverage required to reconstruct diabetic lower leg and foot soft tissue defects.
