“…Distal fixation through the thin muscle is less robust, making sutures prone to loosening. 24 Absorbable sutures (Ethibond, Menlo Park, CA) are placed in a Krackow fashion through the muscle and overlying thoracodorsal fascia for attachment to the biceps tendon (Fig. 4).…”

“…24 The muscle can be palpated or held between the thumb and forefinger during adduction and extension, as well as during a cough, and compared with the contralateral side. Differentiating the contribution of teres major from latissimus is a challenge when testing resisted arm adduction.…”

“…Als Ersatzmotoren stehen die Musculi latissimus dorsi, pectoralis major und triceps brachii zur Verfügung. Daneben ist eine Proximalisierung der Unterarmflexoren und -pronatoren (Steindler-Operation) oder eine funktionelle mikrochirurgische Muskeltransplantation (meist des Musculus gracilis oder Musculus latissimus dorsi) möglich [5,6].…”

“…Dabei kann es zu einer Nahtinsuffizienz kommen, was bei einem unserer Patienten der Fall war. Dieses Nachlassen der Muskelspannung kann eine Nachraffung des Muskels erfordern wie in fünf von zehn Fällen der Patientengruppe von Kawamura et al[6]. In drei dieser Fälle konnte, wie auch bei dem nachoperierten Patienten in unserer Gruppe, bei dem eine sekundäre Straffung eine Ellbogenbeugung erbrachte, schließlich eine funktionell wertvolle Ellenbogenbeugung erzielt werden.…”

“…Flaps from this area may be structured to incorporate varying amounts of bone and muscle as indicated by the defect. The ribs are primarily supplied by the intercostal artery, which anastomoses with the thoracodorsal artery in the LD muscle [1,2]. The option to incorporate bone and soft tissue in a single pedicle has made flaps from the thoracodorsal system popular in reconstruction of the maxillofacial region [3,4].…”
