Comparison of Quality of Life and Cosmetic Outcome of Latissimus Dorsi Mini-Flap With Breast Conservation Surgery Without Reconstruction.

Our results showed that cosmetic outcomes of performing LDMF are comparable to those of BCS alone while having the advantage of resecting larger volumes of breast tissue. Therefore, for those who strongly wish to preserve the cosmesis of their breasts, LDMF can be considered a favorable surgical option after the patient is oriented toward the potential for physical dysfunction after surgery.
