Detailed Description
Dive into the extended narrative that explains the scientific background, objectives, and procedures in greater depth.
Reconstructive surgery is the process of restoring the human body to "whole" following tumor extirpation, infection, trauma or congenital or acquired deformity - restoring both form and function.
The purpose of this study is to assess the efficacy of the thoracodorsal artery perforator flap versus other conventional free flaps for reconstruction of soft tissue defects.
