Mandibular reconstruction using osteocutaneous radial forearm flap.
OBJECTIVE To describe the use of radial forearm osteocutaneous free flap in complex mandibular reconstruction. STUDY DESIGN A case series. PLACE AND DURATION OF STUDY Combined Military Hospital, Rawalpindi, from January 1998 to January 2008. METHODOLOGY Patients having a small bony component and a large soft tissue mandibular defect requiring reconstruction were selected. These defects in...
متن کاملOsteocutaneous radial forearm free flap in subtotal nasal reconstruction.
A 66-year-old man presented with a large squamous cell carcinoma of the right nasal vestibule. He underwent partial rhinectomy and medial maxillectomy followed by staged reconstruction. Reconstruction of a full-thickness nasal defect requires repair of three distinct layers: the skin-soft tissue envelope, subsurface framework and intranasal lining. We report the first use in the UK of an osteoc...
متن کاملThe double-barreled radial forearm osteocutaneous free flap.
OBJECTIVES/HYPOTHESIS The radial forearm osteocutaneous free flap (RFOCFF) provides a thin pliable skin paddle with up to 11 cm of bone. A limitation of this flap is the thin bone that is obtained and the lack of suitability for dental implants. A minimum depth of 5 mm and height of 10 mm is required for a bony flap to accept osteointegrated implants. We propose that by double barreling the rad...
متن کاملZygomatic-maxillary buttress reconstruction of midface defects with the osteocutaneous radial forearm free flap.
BACKGROUND The purpose of this study was to evaluate morbidity, functional, and aesthetic outcomes in midface zygomatic-maxillary buttress reconstruction using the osteocutaneous radial forearm free flap (OCRFFF). METHODS A retrospective review of 24 consecutive patients that underwent midface reconstruction using the OCRFFF was performed. All patients had variable extension of maxillectomy d...
متن کاملThe use of the radial styloid in the extended osteocutaneous radial forearm free flap.
BACKGROUND The osteocutaneous radial forearm free flap (OC-RFFF) remains a useful tool in head and neck reconstruction; however, it can be challenging to harvest sufficient bone for large reconstructions. The extended OC-RFFF is a modification that involves harvest of the distal border of the radius to the tip of the styloid. This increases the length of the bone flap by 2 cm to 3 cm, and the i...
