Abstract

We report on the case of a patient undergoing resection of a large axillary and chest wall tumor, resulting in exposure of the brachial plexus and axillary vessels. Our experience of the use of the pectoralis minor pedicled flap for the reconstruction of such a defect is described, providing for excellent postoperative mobility of the axilla and minimal donor-site morbidity.
