New technique - Scarless Latissimus Dorsi Flap

Developed by Australian plastic surgeon, Dr Mark Lee at St John of God Hospital in Western Australia, the scarless latissimus dorsi (lat dorsi) flap is a new approach to the traditional lat dorsi breast reconstruction method that not only avoids scars to a woman’s back but also has been shown to have fewer complication rates, shorter operating time and good aesthetic outcomes.

This less invasive technique may be particularly appropriate for women undergoing preventative skin and nipple sparing double mastectomies and seeking immediate reconstruction.
