“…Currently, the supraclavicular artery island flap has become another useful option that is now frequently used to reconstruct pharyngeal defects at our center. A small or large skin paddle can be fabricated as dictated by the defect and the flap can even be transferred as an adipofascial onlay flap only (Ross, Baillieu, Shayan, Leung, & Ashton, 2014). As the origin of the supraclavicular artery is in the supraclavicular fossa, pedicle or flap length is usually not an issue when reconstructing defects after laryngopharyngectomy (Chiu, Liu, & Friedlander, 2009).…”

“…Consequently, the adjacent pedicled local flaps (eg pectoralis major, submental island, and deltopectoral flaps) are excellent alternative reconstructive options due to their fair color and contour, even though they are usually bulky. In this setting, the chest region seems to be an ideal donor site, with abundant vessel networks that can guarantee a high reconstructive success rate and where, depending on the skin paddle design, differing skin thicknesses are available. In many people, the skin is not hair‐bearing and the color match is ideal for cervicofacial skin.…”

“…The SA arises 3 to 5 cm from the origin of the TCA, extends laterally, exits at the crossing point of the sternocleidomastoid muscle and the omohyoid muscle, runs into the fat of the posterior cervical triangle, and then bifurcates into the deltoid and thoracic branches nearly 2 cm above the middle point of the clavicle bone. The deltoid branch of the supraclavicular artery (DBSA) passes directly laterally toward the acromioclavicular joint and anastomoses with the cutaneous branches of the posterior circumflex humeral vessel, while the thoracic branch of the supraclavicular artery (TBSA) crosses over the clavicle and runs inferiorly toward the anterior thoracic region, where its anastomosis occurs with the perforators of the internal mammary artery (IMA) (Figure S1). The superficial subclavicular flap veins drain into the external jugular vein (EJV).…”

“…Hier teilt sich die Arterie meist in mehrere Äste auf, um dann mit Ästen der A. thoracoacromialis zu reanastomosieren. Neuere anatomische Arbeiten zeigen, dass der Lappen dabei bis zum Ansatz des M. deltoideus als reiner Axial pattern fl ap fungiert, während er weiter distal im Bereich über dem M. deltoideus ein Random pattern fl ap ist[ 11 ] . Distal des Ansatzes des M. deltoideus im Bereich des Oberarms sinkt dabei die Anzahl der arteriellen Querverbindungen signifi kant, sodass zumindest eine weitreichende Ausdehnung des Lappens bis in diese Bereiche nicht empfohlen wird, um distale Lappennekrosen zu vermeiden.…”

“…Die Haut in diesem Bereich ist weniger sicher perfundiert als im medialen Lappenanteil. Der venöse Abfl uss des Lappens verläuft sowohl in den V. comitantes, die parallel zur Arterie verlaufen, um letztlich in die V. subclavia zu drainieren, als auch über ein oberfl ächliches System, das letztlich in die V. jugularis externa mündet[ 11 ] . Der eigentliche Verlauf des Gefäßstiels, bestehend aus Arteria und V. supraclavicularis, kann im Normalfall dopplersonografi sch nicht dargestellt werden, sodass im Rahmen der Präpara tion immer ein ausreichender Sicherheitsabstand zu den Gefäßen gewahrt bleiben muss, um diese nicht zu verletzen.…”
