Efficacy of anterolateral thigh flap in oro-mandibular reconstruction
نویسندگان
چکیده
The purpose of this research was to evaluate the efficacy utilizing anterolateral flap from thigh region for reconstructing oro-mandibular defects when compared other forms reconstruction. A propensity score-matched analysis patients with an oncologic head and neck defect who underwent microvascular reconstruction performed. Two surgical groups, i.e., ALT (anterolateral bridging Plate) only DFF (simultaneous soft tissue vascularized bone flap), were created. Incidence subsequent management strategies postoperative plate exposure evaluated along complications, overall survival, quality life (QoL). Sixty-two 1:1 matched (31 per group). group had a significantly larger than single-flap group. 5-year probability not having 45.5 47.4% double-flaps respectively (p = 0.186). ALT-only higher rate wound infections (38.7% vs. 12.9%, p 0.02). incidence loss, re-exploration, inpatient mortality, fracture, medical survival different.

BACKGROUND Total or near-total glossectomy defects are commonly reconstructed with rectus abdominis myocutaneous flaps for coverage. Sensory reinnervation has rarely been performed. METHODS Thirteen consecutive total or near-total glossectomy reconstructions were performed in a 12-month period with anterolateral thigh flaps with (n = 8) or without (n = 5) sensory reinnervation to the lingual ...

Most postmastectomy defects are reconstructed by use of lower abdominal-wall tissue either as a pedicled or free flap. However, there are some contraindications for using lower abdominal flaps in breast reconstruction, such as inadequate soft-tissue volume, previous abdominoplasty, lower paramedian or multiple abdominal scars, and plans for future pregnancy. In such situations, a gluteal flap h...
