ABSTRACT
Because of some reasons local flaps are not suitable in the cases with upper extremity injuries, lattismus dorsi flaps are recommended in these cases. We present a twenty eight years old male with upper extremity trauma with type 3C left homerus fracture and destruction of triceps. Reconstruction made using lattismus dorsi flap and in a two month follow up we find a 30° Extention lag comparing to the right elbow while the patient had cosmetically satisfaction
