[Microsurgical reconstruction of facial defects using a forearm flap].
The perforating facial defects are often results of the removal of malignant tumours and less commonly are caused by accidents and shotgun injuries. The advent of musculocutan flaps and the microvascular tissue transplantation has made essential changes in the treatment of full thickness cheek defects during the last decade. The authors describe three cases, where the reconstruction has been made with free radial forearm flaps.
