The report presented a case of recurrence of the tongue cancer after radiotherapy. There was performed an extensive surgery in result of which the tongue, the oral cavity floor, the pharynx and the larynx were excised. The defect was reconstructed with the latissimus dorsi myocutaneous island flap. The authors present the vascularization of the flap and the technique of its formation. The latissimus dorsi myocutaneous island flap is often used in the reconstruction of the oral cavity and the pharynx due to its long pedicle and rich vascularization.
