摘要：
We present two cases of donor site morbidity following immediate breast reconstruction using the extended latissimus dorsi myocutaneous flap. Early post operative dehiscence occurred in both cases, followed by a prolonged period of expectant and conservative management. Plastic surgical intervention involved exploration and removal of significant epithelial lined cavities and reconstruction using local flaps to solve this complication. © 2009 Springer-Verlag.
