Vertical platysma myocutaneous flap reconstruction for oral defects using three different incision designs: Experience with 68 cases
International Journal of Oral and Maxillofacial Surgery Aug 24, 2017
Huang L, et al. – This analysis focused on the impacts of 3 different incision designs for the vertical platysma myocutaneous flap (VPMF): apron, MacFee, and T–shaped. It is suggested that VPMF with the MacFee or apron incision be used for the reconstruction of larger buccal mucosa and floor of the mouth defects. On the other hand, VPMF with the T–shaped incision should be used for smaller intraoral defects, particularly tongue defects of the lateral surface.
