  • Title: Thoracodorsal artery perforator - scapular flap in oromandibular reconstruction with associated large facial skin defects.
    Author: Shaw RJ, Ho MW, Brown JS.
    Journal: Br J Oral Maxillofac Surg; 2015 Jul; 53(6):569-71. PubMed ID: 25857251.
    Abstract:
    The reconstruction of oromandibular defects associated with extensive loss of external skin is surgically challenging. We describe 2 cases where such defects were reconstructed with a chimeric thoracodorsal artery perforator and scapular (TDAP-Scap) free flap based on the subscapular system. The flap is a reliable option in the reconstruction of through-and-through oromandibular defects.
