Evolution of the lateral canthoplasty: techniques and indications.

abstract：:The latissimus dorsi myocutaneous flap can be employed successfully in head and neck reconstruction when the size or nature of the defect precludes the use of local or regional flaps. Generous amounts of hairless skin and muscle may be transferred in one operative procedure while producing an acceptable donor defect. ...
