Abstract
Elevation of the skin island overlying the latissimus dorsi muscle, dissecting the dominant perforating vessel, permits independent positioning of the skin island in relation to the muscle. This combination of the thoracodorsal artery perforator (TAP) and the latissimus dorsi (LD) muscle flap expands the surface of the flap without increasing donor morbidity.Entities:
