Osteocutaneous Radial Forearm Free Flap Fixed to a Prior Osteocutaneous Free Flap: Two Case Reports

Abstract

Reconstruction of mandibular defects is best accomplished by composite bony tissue. When the fibula is not available other sources must be used. Occasionaly tumor recurence will neccesitate a further resection and bony reconstruction. We report two cases in which osteocutaneous radial forearm free tissue transfer was used for secondary reconstructio after prior bony free flap reconstruction. Laryngoscope, 132:2177–2179, 2022
