  • Title: The sternocleidomastoid muscle as a muscular or myocutaneous flap for oral and facial reconstruction.
    Author: Marx RE, McDonald DK.
    Journal: J Oral Maxillofac Surg; 1985 Mar; 43(3):155-62. PubMed ID: 3882918.
    Abstract:
    The sternocleidomastoid muscle may be used as a muscular or a myocutaneous flap to satisfy the need for viable soft tissue in the reconstruction of some cancer- and trauma-related deformities. The anatomic and technical bases of these flaps are discussed in the context of a single-stage pedicled transfer in oral and maxillofacial reconstructive surgery.
