Radical breast resection with skin-muscular latissimus dorsi flap grafting

The oncological breast surgeries with single-stage replacement of the lost volume by means of autogeneous tissue using distant flaps grafting (particularly by skin--muscular flaps of the latissimus dorsi) allow obtaining satisfactory and stable aesthetic results without the decrease of indices of relapse-free and general survival. The early results of the application of the skin-muscular flaps of the latissimus dorsi for single-stage breast reconstruction after radical breast resection are presented in this work in 3 patients with breast cancer. The technique allows performance of the extensive radical resection with single-stage grafting in patients with breast cancer and obtaining an objective clinical response against the background of neoadjuvant therapy with subsequent applying radiation therapy and systemic treatment.
