Abstract:
Objective To compare and analyze the advantages and disadvantages of the forearm skin flap and the lateral femoral skin flap in the repair of oral and maxillofacial defects.Methods Of the 34 patients of oral and maxillofacial tumor resection received postopera-tive reconstruction of maxillofacial defects treatment,18 patients repaired by forearm flap( forearm flap group) ,16 patients repaired by antero-lateral thigh flap ( anterolateral thigh flap group) .The clinical effect and the restoration of two groups after surgery were compared.Results The survival rate of disposable surgical flap in forearm flap group was 94.44%,the survival rate of the anterolateral thigh flap group was 87.50%.The difference between two groups was not statistically significant (P>0.05).The difference of swallowing function in 3 months after surgery between two groups was not statistically significant (P>0.05).The difference of survival quality score between the two groups was not statistically significant (P >0.05) in 6 months after surgery.The scar proliferation rate (27.78%), pigment deposition rate (88.89%), temporary sexual dysfunction rate(66.67%),a permanent disability rate (27.78%) of forearm flap group were significantly higher than those of the femoral anterolateral flap group patients (P<0.05).Conclusion The forearm skin flap and the lateral femoral skin flap have a good clincal effect on the repair of oral and maxillofacial defects,and the incidence of complications of the femoral anterior lateral femoral flap is lower.
