متن کاملFunctional results of microvascular reconstruction after hemiglossectomy: free anterolateral thigh flap versus free forearm flap
The aim of the present study is to assess functional outcomes after hemiglossectomy and microvascular reconstruction. Twenty-six patients underwent primary tongue microvascular reconstruction after hemiglossectomy.

This study evaluates various microvascular free flap reconstructions in this patient population, including the rarely utilized radial forearm free flap. PATIENTS AND METHODS A retrospective review of pat...
متن کاملVoice outcomes following reconstruction of laryngopharyngectomy defects using the radial forearm free flap and the anterolateral thigh free flap.
OBJECTIVES/HYPOTHESIS Patients undergoing laryngopharyngectomy with extensive pharyngeal mucosal resection or those failing chemoradiation protocols are commonly reconstructed using free tissue transfer. Radial forearm free flaps (RFFFs) and anterolateral thigh free flaps (ALTs) are two of the most commonly used free flaps for laryngopharyngectomy reconstruction. It has been suggested that alar...
