Lateral Breast and Axillary Reconstruction With Pedicled Parascapular Flap.

Year: 2018

Type: article

Abstract: Our case supports prior studies that have demonstrated the parascapular flap to have low donor site morbidity compared with other harvest sites. Our patient did not suffer from loss of functional range of motion or limitation in physical activity. It also demonstrates the flap's utility for lateral breast and axillary coverage and its durability in the setting of adjuvant radiation therapy.
