Chest wall reconstruction with a free extended forearm flap. A case report.

Abstract:

:Forequarter amputation combined with chest wall resection may present a difficult closure problem. In a recent case, the defect was satisfactorily closed with a free flap from the amputated extremity, employing the entire soft tissue of the forearm.
