Özet

Objectives: There are several myocutaneous flaps used for chest wall reconstruction. However, in some cases, usage of these flaps is not suitable. If the patient is female, we aimed to show that use of the breast tissue while saving its lateral and medial pedicles is an option for the reconstruction.
