[Thoracic reconstruction by a free fibulaire flap and latismus dorsi]

In order to preserve the respiratory function of the thorax the reconstruction must be immediate and must answer currently to principles of repair very codified. We reported a case of thoracic reconstruction by an association of flaps, free fibular and pedicled of the latismus dorsi, after a resection of a shrewd tumour of the thoracic partition. This reconstruction has permitted the contribution of a musculocutaneous cover of good quality and the contribution of a skeletal support satisfying at a time. The association of flaps can be considered like one of the solutions for the reconstruction of the big losses of substance of full thickness of the thoracic partition requiring a restoration of the thoracic skeleton.
