Area of Science:

  • Oral and Maxillofacial Surgery
  • Reconstructive Surgery
  • Oncology

Background:

  • Oncological excision in the oral and maxillofacial region often results in large defects.
  • Reconstruction of these defects is crucial for restoring function and social reintegration.
  • Limited local tissue availability necessitates distant reconstruction methods.

Observation:

  • Defects involving the eye, tongue, palate, or cheek present significant functional challenges.
  • Current reconstruction often involves distant tissue transfers.
  • The temporal flap is an underutilized reconstructive option in this area.

Findings:

  • The temporal flap is a viable option for oral and maxillofacial reconstruction.
  • This flap offers advantages in terms of reduced surgical time.
  • Faster healing times are associated with temporal flap reconstruction.

Implications:

  • Increased utilization of the temporal flap could improve patient outcomes.
  • This technique may enhance functional recovery and social reintegration.
  • Further research into temporal flap applications in maxillofacial oncology is warranted.
