Use of the Limberg flap to close breast wounds after partial mastectomy
Ann R Coll Surg Engl.
1985 Jul.
Abstract
Early experience using a rhomboid flap to reconstruct the breast after partial mastectomy and axillary clearance of glands is encouraging. This operation has been used in 7 cases to reconstruct breasts after partial mastectomy and axillary clearance of glands and has given a good cosmetic result.
