Most of the articles on the groin flap were published in the period from 1975 to 2010, from 2015 to 2022, the SCIP flap surpassed the groin flap in the number of publications. According to the results of a literature search in PubMed and RINC, 30 articles were found and selected, including 288 flaps from the iliac region. The length of the vascular pedicle, the diameter of the vessels, the complications, the prevalence of the flap in the reconstruction of the head and neck, the thickness and the size of the flap were evaluated. Both of these flaps have the same nutrition, but different levels of dissection. In comparison with the groin flap, the SCIP flap has a longer vascular pedicle, which can be enlarged due to new techniques, which also allows it to be used as an ultra-thin flap, and it reduces the need for secondary procedures for defatting and reduces the risks of the complications in the donor area. The thickness of the SCIP flap is less than the groin one, which, according to the author, increases the aesthetic level of operations in the facial area in the case of the texture and color of the flap. Vascular anatomy of the SCIP flap is variable, therefore, the use of preoperative planning is necessary. Despite this, complications in the donor or recipient area during reconstruction with a SCIP flap are minimal. It has been proved that the SCIP flap is versatile and safe in all aspects of reconstruction. It can be concluded that the SCIP flap should be considered as a «workhorse» in reconstructive microsurgery of soft tissues of the throat and oral cavity
