ABSTRACT

Microtransported free-flaps are now used as first choice technique when reconstructing head and neck defects. However, in tissues with previous radiation, chemotherapy or multiple local procedures, identifying the receptor vassels is difficult. In such cases, locoregional flaps are used to prevent failure. This article reviews two case reports of neck defects which have been primary and secondary reconstruction of the neck flaps.
