Pectoralis Major Segmental Anatomy and Segmentally Splt Pectoralis Major Flaps
Plastic and Reconstructive Surgery, 1985This report presents the anatomic studies, animal studies, and initial clinical experience that provide a basis for splitting pectoralis major muscle and myocutaneous flaps into independent segmental subunits. The anatomic study of 105 human cadaver pectoralis major muscle and myocutaneous units and their neurovascular supply indicated a consistent ...

In brief Ruptures of the pectoralis major are unusual, but may be underrecognized; fewer than 100 case reports have been published. This injury is often associated with performing the bench press. Physical examination usually will reveal a palpable defect, acute pain on range of motion, and weakness to resisted adduction and internal rotation.

Pectoralis major myocutaneous flap
Oral and Maxillofacial Surgery Clinics of North America, 2003The pectoralis major myocutaneous flap is a versatile and predictable transfer of soft tissue for the reconstruction of avulsive and ablative defects of the oral and maxillofacial region. This article reviews preoperative considerations, surgical anatomy, technique, and possible complications related to the development of this flap.

In brief Rupture of the pectoralis major brief muscle and tendon, which occurs most frequently among weight lifters but has been reported in many sports, can most often be diagnosed based on the history and physical exam. Surgical intervention for complete ruptures has a clear advantage over conservative therapy.

Diagnosis of pectoralis major tears requires adequate knowledge of the complex anatomy of the muscle by the radiologist and a high grade of suspicion by the clinician. Injuries of the pectoralis major muscles are becoming increasingly common in the last decade, with increasing popularity of weight lifting, martial arts and gymnastics.

Ruptures of the pectoralis major tendon have traditionally been considered a rare injury, but there has been a rise in the number of reported cases over the last decade. The majority of cases occur in young adult males engaging in strenuous sporting activities such as weight training, and there is an association with the use of anabolic steroids.

Injuries to the pectoralis major muscle range in severity from mild strains and contusions to complete ruptures. Careful physical examination and a high level of suspicion based on history are keys to accurate and timely diagnosis. Injuries are most common in males in the 20s and 30s and occur when load is applied to an eccentrically contracting muscle.

Traumatic abscess of pectoralis major
Archives of Orthopaedic and Trauma Surgery, 2000Pectoralis major rupture is a well-recognised but uncommon injury that rarely leads to complications. We present an unusual case where the resultant haematoma following a partial rupture became infected and caused problems with diagnosis. We are only aware of one previous report of this.

The Pectoralis Major Myocutaneous Flap
Journal of Reconstructive Microsurgery, 2013The pectoralis major myocutaneous flap (PMMF) is a workhorse flap for head and neck reconstruction and a flap of choice for anterior chest wall reconstruction.A thorough review of the literature was undertaken, exploring the full range of designs, variations, indications, and outcomes of the PMMF.Numerous modifications have been documented since it was

Although previously considered rare, ruptures of the pectoralis major muscle and tendon have become more common over the past 20 years with increasing participation in competitive sports and weight lifting. These injuries result from maximal eccentric contraction of the muscle with the arm held in an abducted, extended position.
