A transverse thoracoabdominal skin flap for closure after radical mastectomy

R Baroudi et al. Plast Reconstr Surg. 1978 Apr.

Abstract

For closure of radical mastectomy defects, we present a new rotation flap using thoracoabdominal skin which crosses the midline of the trunk. This allows a rapid closure without the necessity of a delay.
