The latissimus dorsi muscle has provided a useful flap for studying and defining the principles of the myocutaneous method. Clinically, it has yielded a valuable myocutaneous unit, based on its various pedicles. It has also provided the microvascular surgeon with a versatile unit that supplies a large volume of tissue with a long vascular pedicle. Investigation of the vascularity of the latissimus dorsi unit has led to better understanding of the vascularity of the muscle, and has extended the range of application of the myocutaneous method.
背阔肌为研究和确定肌皮瓣方法的原则提供了一块有用的皮瓣。临床上，基于其不同的蒂，它产生了一个有价值的肌皮单位。它还为显微血管外科医生提供了一个多功能单位，该单位以一个长血管蒂供应大量组织。对背阔肌单位血管分布的研究有助于更好地理解该肌肉的血管分布，并扩大了肌皮瓣方法的应用范围。
