Abstract:Axillary defects represent a rather common issue in plastic surgery practice. Surgical resections related to skin disease are frequent in this region and their extension often requires soft tissue transfer for coverage. In this setting, locoregional pedicled flaps are usually preferred. The nearby tissues offer pliable but still resistant skin, which satisfy the “like‐with‐like” reconstructive principle. Over the years different procedures have been described for this purpose. Among them, a valuable and often … Show more
