Continued twitching of the latissimus dorsi miniflap after breast conservation therapy: A case report

Abstract

We report a case of continued twitching of the latissimus dorsi muscle following breast conservation therapy, along with immediate reconstruction with a latissimus dorsi miniflap, which continued despite several attempts at control including BTX-A percutaneous local injection, and was finally cured by delayed division of the thoracodorsal nerve via a small well-tolerated axillary incision. © 2012 Huang et al. licensee BioMed Central Ltd.
