  • Title: New reconstruction for total maxillectomy defect with a fibula osteocutaneous free flap.
    Author: Nakayama B, Matsuura H, Hasegawa Y, Ishihara O, Hasegawa H, Torii S.
    Journal: Br J Plast Surg; 1994 Jun; 47(4):247-9. PubMed ID: 8081612.
    Abstract:
    The osteocutaneous fibula free transfer with three segments of bone and the peroneal flap was used to reconstruct a total unilateral maxillectomy defect. Satisfactory restoration of three-dimensional facial structure, orbital support, and prosthesis wearing was achieved. The fibula osteocutaneous free flap is a very useful alternative for reconstructing a maxillectomy defect.
