Abstract:
Objective:To analyse clinical outcomes and risk factors of vascular crisis on patients received oral and maxillofacial defect repairations with free tissue flap.Methods:From January, 2013 to July, 2018, 1 049 patients with soft tissue defect of oral and maxillofacial were reconstructed with free tissue flap, in which 64 cases occurred vascular crisis. Among the cases, 28 defect were reconstructed with radial forearm free flap (RFFF), 19 with anterolateral thigh flap (ALTF), and 17 with fibula flap. All patients underwent surgical exploration. The clinical data and surgical outcomes were collected. The univariate analysis and multivariate regression analysis were performed by using SPSS version 22.0 software. The result was supposed to statistically significant when P<0.05. Results:Among 64 patients occurred vascular crisis, 44 flaps were rescued successfully by surgical procedures (68.8%). Univariate analysis revealed that the salvage rate was related to the smoking history, type of tissue flap, time of vascular crisis occurrence, cause of vascular crisis and the time interval between crisis occurrence and surgical exploration ( P<0.05). Multivariate regression analysis revealed that only type of tissue flap, the time of vascular crisis occurrence and the interval time were the independent significant factors for salvage rate ( P<0.05). Conclusion:The salvage rate became higher when the vascular crisis occurred earlier, and the interval time was shorter. The type of tissue flap could affect the outcome of surgical exploration. The success rate decreased with an order of RFFF, ALTF to fibula flaps. The primary principle in the management of vascular crisis was early identification and early surgical exploration.
