[Reconstructive results in 31 cases using a myocutaneous flap from pectoralis major].
A study was carried out about the general features of myocutaneous flap taken from the pectoralis major muscle. This flap is employed in the reconstructive step after ablative surgery for carcinomata of the oropharynx, tongue, floor of the mouth, hypopharynx and other growths of the neck with skin involvement. The AA. review their 31 cases results, both cosmetic and functionally, and consider that the end-condition is favorable and hopeful in the whole.
