Abstract

Li et al. present an anatomically grounded reconstruction strategy combining a lateral thoracic myocutaneous flap with medial pectoral nerve transfer for restoration after sternocleidomastoidectomy.1 The integration of cadaveric mapping with clinical application represents an ambitious attempt to address both contour deformity and functional compromise in a single-stage procedure.
