متن کاملMultidisciplinary Oncoplastic Approach Reduces Infection in Chest Wall Resection and Reconstruction for Malignant Chest Wall Tumors
BACKGROUND Management of complex thoracic defects post tumor extipiration is challenging because of the nature of pathology, the radical approach, and the insertion of prosthetic material required for biomechanical stability. Wound complications pose a significant problem that can have detrimental effect on patient outcome. The authors outline an institutional experience of a multidisciplinary ...
متن کاملHuge Chest Wall Tumour Resection and Reconstruction using Titanium Mesh.
Malignant chest wall tumour is rare. The presentation is usually aggressive that requires extensive resection to prevent recurrence.
