The burned female breast

Annals of Plastic Surgery

Abstract

Historically, treatment of the burned female breast has been unsatisfactory. By using the latissimus dorsi myocutaneous flap, many patients can be reconstructed in a single operation. A more aggressive approach in adolescent patients whose breasts are developing may result in more normal breasts. In such patients, nipple reconstruction is delayed until a later time.
