“…Functional defects consist of reduced neck mobility, dysphagia, aspiration, the inability to swallow, the Frey syndrome following parotidectomy, and diminished phonation following laryngeal cancer treatment. Both categories of defects can benefit from autologous fat grafting (Table 1) [53,54,55,56,57,58,59,60,61,62,63].…”

“…For example, a recent study of fat grafting in 79 dysphonic patients, who included ten with surgery for malign or benign tumors, led to voice improvement in all patients [61]. Another published application was the correction of insufficient neoglottal closure following supracricoid laryngectomy with cricohyoidoepiglottopexy for laryngeal cancers [58]. In both patients described in this study, suffering from chronic aspiration, the autologous fat was harvested from the buccal fat pad and injected into the widest plane of the neoglottis under direct laryngoscopy, leading to improvement of swallowing.…”

Due to the anatomical and functional complexity of the region, craniofacial tumor removal requires some of the most challenging surgical approaches, often complemented with advanced chemo-radiotherapy techniques. However, these modern therapies often lead to sequelae that can drastically reduce the quality of life for the surviving patients. Recent advances in the field of regenerative medicine opened new avenues for craniofacial reconstruction following head and neck cancer treatment. One of the most promising recent strategies relies on the use of autologous fat transplant. In this mini review, we briefly present some of the fat’s biological properties that make it an ideal tissue for craniofacial reconstruction following cancer treatment. We then outline the recent advances that led to a better understanding of the detailed anatomy of the craniofacial fat depots. Furthermore, we provide a succinct review of the methods used for fat harvesting, processing and engrafting in the craniofacial area after head and neck tumor removal, discussing their main applications, advantages and limitations.

“…In a study of 10 patients with glottal closure deficiencies, BFPs were harvested, trimmed into 1‐mm 3 cubes, and injected into vocal cords 21 . Most recently, BFPs have also been used for treatment of defects after removal of laryngeal cancers and neoglottal closure 28 (Fig. 2).…”

Focused Clinical Question: Are there any extraoral uses for intraoral soft tissue grafts? Summary: Despite extensive literature on the intraoral uses of soft tissue autografts harvested from oral sites, the periodontal literature is lacking information on the extraoral uses of such grafts. The purpose of this article is to review the autologous use of certain oral soft tissue grafts for extraoral indications. A literature search revealed that several medical specialties, including otolaryngology, ophthalmology, dermatology, plastic surgery, and urology, have a track record of positive outcomes with the use of free gingival, buccal fat pad, and buccal mucosa grafts for a wide variety of reconstructive procedures at diverse body sites. Conclusions: The numerous successful extraoral uses of oral soft tissue autografts underscore the versatility of these tissues in reconstructive surgery and suggest there is potential for collaboration between periodontal and medical specialists for the benefit of patients in need of such reconstructions. Broader awareness of these applications of oral soft tissue grafts could help expand their current uses and would allow practitioners to better answer possible patient inquiries.
