Low Skeletal Muscle Mass: A Strong Predictive Factor for Surgical Complications After Free Forearm Flap Reconstruction in Oral Cancer Patients.
[BACKGROUND] Low skeletal muscle mass (SMM) is a predictive factor for complications in patients undergoing major head and neck cancer surgery. This study aims to identify the predictive value of low SMM for postoperative complications in p…

Postoperative Imaging Appearance of Iliac Crest Free Flaps Used for Palatomaxillary Reconstructions.
The osteomyocutaneous iliac crest free flap is a reconstructive option for segmental mandibular or complex palatomaxillary defects. Familiarity with the radiographic appearance of free flaps such as the iliac crest is necessary for the post…

Radiation necrosis of the pharyngeal soft tissue: Unique clinical entity reconstructed with a previously unreported composite brachioradialis and flexor digitorum superficialis radial forearm flap.
[BACKGROUND] The radial forearm free flap (RFFF) is a versatile flap commonly used in head and neck reconstructive surgery. We describe the use of a composite RFFF that includes muscle for reconstruction of a hostile wound of the posterior …
