[The myocutaneous platysma flap].
Reconstruction of defects after tumor ablation has been accomplished by a variety of different techniques. The platysma musculocutaneous flap for reconstruction is outlined and the surgical technique described. It provides 8 x 10 cm of flap coverage. The donor site is closed primarily without cosmetic defect. Forty of 48 patients on whom this flap was used healed without complication.
