ABSTRACT Introduction: The rhomboid flap was introduced by Professor AA Limberg of Leningrad, hence also called as the Limberg flap. It is an interesting procedure for skin movement in which a rhomboid defect is created and then closed with a rhomboid shaped flap of a similar size. The surgeon’s goal is to avoid unsightly scars while using the simplest, most effective reconstructive approach. Case Series: The present paper demonstrates the versatility of the rhomboid flap in head neck region. Two cases, one of dentoalveolar infection and the other of cervicofacial actinomycosis are presented, in which the unsightly scars that could have been produced by excision of the lesion alone, has been avoided by the use of rhomboid flap. Conclusion: Rhomboid flap is a very versatile and robust flap, easy to master and practice, that can be tailored to suit the surgeon’s needs.
