Pedicled latissimus dorsi transfer for immediate soft-tissue coverage and elbow flexion.

abstract：BACKGROUND:Abdominal donor-site flaps, including the transverse rectus abdominis musculocutaneous (TRAM) and deep inferior epigastric artery (DIEA) perforator flaps, are standard in autologous breast reconstruction. With significant variation in the vascular anatomy of the abdominal wall, preoperative imaging is essent...
