Pectoralis major myocutaneous flap in primary and salvage head and neck cancer surgeryAničin, Aleksandar ; Šifrer, Robert, dr. med. ; Strojan, PrimožPURPOSE: To analyze the oncologic, functional, and esthetic results of using the pectoralis major myocutaneous flap (PMMF) from November 2001 to April 2012 at the Department of Otorhinolaryngology ... and Cervicofacial Surgery, University Medical Center Ljubljana (Ljubljana, Slovenia). PATIENTS AND METHODS: Patients with squamous cell carcinoma of the head and neck (SCCHN) who underwent tissue defect reconstruction with a PMMF were identified from a prospective database. Medical and surgical records were reviewed for information on clinical characteristics, treatment, and outcome and specifically for indications for the PMMF, wound healing, flap vitality, functional results, and esthetics. RESULTS: Forty PMMFs were used in 39 patients with SCCHN. With respect to previous therapy and prognosis, patients were sorted into a primary surgery group (19 patients) and a salvage surgery group (20 patients with recurrent disease). Statistically better locoregional control and disease-free survival were observed in the first group. Wound healing was completed in 32 patients (median time from surgery, 22 days). Three cases exhibited partial PMMF necrosis. Functional results, occlusion of pharyngocutaneous fistula, speech intelligibility, upper limb dysfunction, and esthetic outcome did not differ between the 2 groups. CONCLUSION: The PMMF is a reasonable choice for primary head and neck cancer surgery and in salvage procedures. Its use is characterized by vitality, a reasonably short recovery time, and a favorable esthetic outcome at the donor site in most patients.Source: Journal of oral and maxillofacial surgery. - ISSN 0278-2391 (Vol. 73, iss. 10, 2015, str. 2057-2064)Type of material - article, component partPublish date - 2015Language - englishCOBISS.SI-ID - 2034811
