    Journal: Zhonghua Wai Ke Za Zhi; 1991 Aug; 29(8):519-20, 527. PubMed ID: 1813252.
    Abstract:
    Twenty-four cases of scar contracture of neck were repaired with musculocutaneous flaps. Latissimus dorsi musculocutaneous flap was used in 21 cases, latissimus dorsi-serratus anterior musculocutaneous flap in 2, and lower trapezius musculocutaneous flap in 1. All the flaps were alive with satisfactory functional results and shape. This simple method is also suitable for patients with scar contracture of armpit, anterior chest and lower lip.
