Sometimes small areas of soft tissue removed from the head and neck can be replaced with near healthy tissue, called a flap, which is still attached to its own blood supply. Flaps with their own blood supply heal quickly. They may come from the scalp, cheek, forehead, neck, or chest. Often, flap tissue is taken from a distant part of the body. The aim of this study was to identify the risk factors for free flap failure after head and neck reconstructive surgery. The data of 881 consecutive The traditional approach to head and neck reconstruction is considered challenging, requiring a subjective assessment of an often-complex Clin Oral Invest.

Abstract: Surgical treatment of head and neck cancer, in certain cases, inflicts large tissue defects. Some of these defects are associated with devastating These flaps are widely used in abdominopelvic as well as thoracic and head and neck surgical oncology and have a characteristic appearance on CT.

Four flaps were radial forearm free flaps, and one flap was an anterolateral thigh free flap (Table 1).

But it was only until the late 1970s when the use of these flaps received widespread attention for the reconstruction of defects in the head and neck. This textbook, containing a plethora of illustrations and pictures, will serve as an atlas and as a superb guide to the use of cutaneous flaps in head and neck reconstruction. Each chapter depicts, in a layered manner, the anatomy of a particular donor site from which flaps are derived and used in head and neck defects, providing systematic Results: A total of 38 patients underwent axial pedicled flap reconstruction in the study period. Head and neck reconstructive procedures are also indicated in. The head and neck region is important both functionally and aesthetically and its reconstruction poses a formidable challenge for plastic Finally, to our knowledge, this study is the first to document successfully performing five free flaps for head and neck reconstruction in the same patient, further expanding the realm of possibility for resection of recurrent head and neck cancers, or treatment of complications associated with head and neck oncologic and reconstructive surgery.
