  • Title: Intraoral reconstructive techniques.
    Author: Wells MD, Edwards AL, Luce EA.
    Journal: Clin Plast Surg; 1995 Jan; 22(1):91-108. PubMed ID: 7743714.
    Abstract:
    A multitude of reconstructive options are possible for the patient afflicted with an intraoral malignancy. The reconstructive technique chosen depends on the stage of the disease and the extent of the soft- and hard-tissue defects after extirpation. A graded approach is applied to reconstruction. If local tissues are not available for reconstruction, the surgeon must look to more distant sites in choosing a reconstructive procedure. Microsurgical transfer of composite tissues have allowed us a high degree of success in effecting immediate one-stage closure of complex three-dimensional wounds.
