[A method for treating mandibular defects with a complex autograft based on the trapezius muscle]

Study of surgical anatomy of musculus trapezius with the adjacent skin and spine of the scapula helped determine the main neurovascular "port" of the muscle. The data were used for developing a method for treating mandibular defects with complex grafts on a mobile neurovascular pedicle. The site and port do not depend on sex but are related to age and constitution and determine the type of the transplant cut.
