|September 1, 1979
Abstract:
The general anatomy and the detailed vascular anatomy of the latissimus dorsi myocutaneous flap is described, and its use as a free flap is illustrated. The speed and ease with which it can be raised, its long vascular pedicle, the large diameter of the donor vessels, and the potentially large size of the flap are emphasized.
