Abstract:
Based on a case of reconstruction after oncologic resection of the hard palate, the authors document the key technical points for harvesting a posterior-based buccinator myomucosal flap (Bozola's flap), and its limitations and indications after oncologic resection of tumors originating from the oral cavity and/oropharynx.
