Further Experiences With the Pectoralis Major Myocutaneous Flap for the Immediate Repair of Defects From Excisions of Head and Neck Cancers

Abstract

In our experience with 14 pectoralis major myocutaneous flaps they have been very reliable for reconstructions in a variety of clinical situations--especially in the repair of defects from extensive cancer resections in the head and neck area, including orbital exenterations. The flaps can be transferred immediately, without a delay.
