[The musculus pectoralis major rib flap. Personal experiences with 7 cases].
We present a report of our experience with one-step reconstruction of the mandible after resection in tumor cases using an osteomyo-cutaneous flap. We performed a pectoralis major flap with a segment of the fifth rib, blood supplied by the periosteum. In seven cases we had one pseudoarthrosis. The complications in the donor site were none. We see in the pectoralis major-rib flap an alternative to microsurgical techniques, especially in patients with defects in the horizontal part of the mandible.
