The article discusses current trends in the use of the pectoralis major muscle in restorative operations for chest wall defects resulting from infectious and inflammatory processes. The scientific literature for analysis was found in the following databases: RSCI, PubMed, Web of Science. The mostly discussed topics are features of the anatomy and anomalies of the pectoralis major muscles, variants of pectoralis major flaps, the main nosologies requiring pectoralis major muscle plasty, complications after using the pectoralis major flaps.

В обзорной статье представлены современные тенденции использования большой грудной мышцы при реконструктивно-восстановительных операциях по поводу дефектов грудной стенки инфекционно-воспалительной этиологии. Проведен анализ доступных литературных источников баз данных: РИНЦ, PubMed, Web of Science. Определены наиболее актуальные вопросы по данной проблеме, а именно: особенности анатомии и аномалии больших грудных мышц; варианты лоскутов большой грудной мышцы; основные нозологии, при которых используется пластика большой грудной мышцей; осложнения применения лоскутов большой грудной мышцы.
