  • Abstract
  • Look Inside

 Extensive tissue defect after total glossectomy is reconstructed using one of these delto-pectoral flap, forehead flap and eplon flap. Simple cloure of the tissue defect, however, leave swallowing difficulty remarkably.

 For preservation of swallowing function, it is necessary that an adequate tissue mass should substitute the tongue. In many cases, multiple flaps are generally used for this purpose.

 A new surgical method for the reconstruction of the whole tongue with one delto-pectoral flap was developed. A stem of delto-pectoral flap was inserted and fixed at the floor of mouth to replace the tongue after the tip of flap had been transplanted to the oral cavity. This method can provide the sufficient replacement of the tongue, and the complete restoration of the swallowing function for solid foods and liguids.
