Résumé

Breast reconstruction is becoming increasingly important in the management of breast cancer. Among breast reconstruction with flap, latissimus dorsi flap is the most frequent technique used in France. Lipofilling's emergence led to changes for using latissimus dorsi flap in breast reconstruction. The aim of this study was to compare postoperative complications following conventional latissimus dorsi (CLD) flap versus muscle-sparing latissimus dorsi (MSLD) flap breast reconstruction.
