[Mandibular reconstruction employing a costomyocutaneous flap of pectoralis major. Anatomical and technical aspects and viability of graft (author's transl)].
Costomyocutaneous flaps of pectoralis major were employed for reconstruction of the mandible. The various unconventional procedures for mandibular reconstruction reported in the published literature are reviewed, a critical analysis conducted of the different tests of viability of the graft employed, anatomical and technical aspects discussed, and results presented. This flap is suggested as being an excellent method for reconstruction after interrupted pelvimandibulectomy or mandibulectomy involving the skin.
