Lateral view of the curvilinear incision for the latissimus dorsi muscle-tendon harvest site on the inferior right shoulder. The arrow indicates the neurovascular pedicle of the latissimus dorsi. To avoid injury to the neurovascular pedicle, sound knowledge of anatomy is crucial. Meticulous dissection of the muscle belly is best performed with slight tension on the previously released tendon.
