All falps in this group survived. This skin flap must be very promising with advantages of an unexposed donor site, soft in texture and color matching the face. Moreover, the operation is less traumatic. The design and essential points of preparing the flap are introduced. The indication of operation is also discussed.展开更多

METHODS: Six patients with malignant orbital tumors and/or maxillofacial tumors invading the orbital regions were treated with extensive resection. The major midfacial soft tissue defects were repaired by temporalis myofascial flap and facial-cervico-pectoral rotation flap. RESULTS: All flaps were successfully transferred; the result of facial aesthetics was satisfactory in all patients. Follow-up periods varied from 9 to 20 months (mean follow up period: 13.2 months) and all of the patients were alive during the follow-up period with one recurrence. CONCLUSIONS: The TMF and the FRF are easy to harvest, have low donor site morbidity, and are compatible with the principles of oncologic resection. It is the method of choice for repairing major orbito-maxillofacial skin defects following resection of the tumors.展开更多
