Abstract

The latissimus dorsi musculocutaneous free flap has been shown to be a useful tool in reconstructive surgery. Sensory innervation of the vascular territory of the latissimus dorsi is presented. This anatomic principle is applied in a free transfer of a latissimus dorsi musculocutaneous flap for reconstruction of the volar area of a foot following a severe frostbite injury.
