[Reconstruction of the oral cavity with myocutaneous flaps and the laterocervical hinge approach]

The AA. tell their experience about the myocutaneous flaps purposely carved for the reconstructive stage of surgical intervents forecasting big body-stuff loss, as the oral floor exeresis, of the tongue, of larynx, of mandible contemporaneously with latero-cervical dissection. The method we purpose is very simple and valid as it has never given some problem about the flourishing and vitality of the flaps. We tell about very large flaps we carve by the all thickness simple vertical and median section of the inferior lip and of inferior part of neck. These flaps are holded in right and left latero cervical side for all the length going from clavicle to mastoid. The vascularization has ever been excellent for the large surface of the hinge and of course for the large nourishing hematic bed. Consequently we purpose the myocutaneous flaps holded in latero-cervical side as useful and no-replaceable in the chirurgichal reconstruction of "Supercommando".
