“…Usually, these defects involve adjacent cheek, chin, and/or mandible. The most frequently used free flap is the radial artery forearm free flap, with palmaris tendon suspension for lower lip loss [22]. The flap can be innervated by anastomosing a branch of the lateral antebrachial cutaneous nerve to the transected end of the inferior alveolar nerve; however, the usefulness of this maneuver is debatable because thin flaps such as the radial forearm flap often spontaneously regain some sensation without any nerve coaptation [23].…”
