Endoscopic latissimus dorsi flap harvesting
American Journal of Surgery, 2007Immediate breast reconstruction using the latissimus dorsi musculocutaneous flap is a standard technique that allows for cosmetically acceptable results yet leaves a great scar on the donor site. To reduce the scars, we have been using a different surgical technique consisting of endoscopic harvesting of the latissimus dorsi pure muscular flap with a ...

Experience with the Latissimus Dorsi Flap
Scandinavian Journal of Plastic and Reconstructive Surgery, 1985A review of 65 applications of the latissimus dorsi flap based on the thoraco-dorsal vessels to recipient sites in the head and neck area (10), on the torso (22), in the upper extremity (9) and in the lower extremity (24) in 62 patients with malignancies (28) and congenital deformities (6) is presented.

The Latissimus Dorsi Flap: An Overview
Scandinavian Journal of Plastic and Reconstructive Surgery, 1985In the recent past, the latissimus dorsi musculocutaneous flap has added a significant tool to the armamentarium of the reconstructive surgeon. The history of its clinical use is reviewed with emphasis on embryological, anatomical and hemodynamic aspects.

The latissimus dorsi (LD) flap is a Mathes–Nahai type V flap (one major pedicle, multiple minor pedicles) and is the widest muscle in the human body. It is a workhorse flap in the armamentarium of the plastic surgeon. It is commonly used to reconstruct multiple, wide, or long lower extremity defects.

The expanded latissimus dorsi flap
British Journal of Plastic Surgery, 1988The safety of tissue expansion of the latissimus dorsi musculocutaneous flap is confirmed and the advantage of expansion of this flap before transfer illustrated.

Plastic and Reconstructive Surgery, 1979
In clinical experiences with 60 cases, we have found the latissimus dorsi to be a reliable and versatile flap. We describe its use for a functional muscle transfer (in restoration of elbow flexion and repair of abdominal wall defects), for arm and shoulder coverage, for breast reconstruction, and as a free flap.

Latissimus dorsi perforator flap
Clinics in Plastic Surgery, 2003Although exact information on the distribution of reliable perforators has not been published, its underlying reproducible pattern may be experienced with clinical trials. The LD perforator flap is a typical example of thin perforator flap and it can be used widely as a resurfacing tool or reconstructive modality with various composition.

The Latissimus Dorsi/Scapular Bone Flap (the “Latissimus/Bone Flap”)
Plastic and Reconstructive Surgery, 1994During the past 4 years, our trauma and reconstructive service has treated a number of patients with lower extremity trauma involving the loss of both soft tissue and significant segments of tibia. While there are many methods for reconstruction of such defects, we became interested in providing a one-stage reconstruction of both the soft tissues and ...

Annals of Plastic Surgery, 1982
The latissimus dorsi muscle has provided a useful flap for studying and defining the principles of the myocutaneous method. Clinically, it has yielded a valuable myocutaneous unit, based on its various pedicles. It has also provided the microvascular surgeon with a versatile unit that supplies a large volume of tissue with a long vascular pedicle ...

The “Reduced” Latissimus Dorsi Musculocutaneous Flap
Plastic and Reconstructive Surgery, 1989This report introduces a new device among latissimus dorsi flaps: the "reduced" latissimus dorsi musculocutaneous flap. This flap consists of a proximal musculocutaneous unit and a distal, thin fasciocutaneous unit (the "reduced" portion). The former unit carries a reliable blood supply from the thoracodorsal artery and is able to cover deeper ...
