ISSN: 1435-0130Keywords: Latissimus dorsi myocutaneous flap ; Wrist vessels ; Arm carrier ; Lumbo-sacral scar contractureSource: Springer Online Journal Archives 1860-2000Topics: MedicineNotes: Summary After excision of extensive post infection back scarring, there were no local flaps and no satisfactory recipient vessels for closure of the defect. A latissimus dorsi free flap was carried on the radial artery and cephalic vein and used to effect the reconstruction. The pedicle was divided at four weeks. The back deformity was corrected completely. By means of microsurgical techniques, free transfer of the latissimus dorsi myocutaneous flap is commonly used to repair a large soft tissue defect following excision of scar contracture deformity [1]. This was a problem in one of our cases where no vessels were available for anastomosis in the recipient site, and thus wrist vessels were used as carriers to revascularize the flap with success.Type of Medium: Electronic ResourceURL:
