ABSTRACT

Backgrounds: To compare post-operative result following reconstruction of soft tissue defect after wide excision of oral cancer by radial forearm free flaps and anterolateral thigh free flaps. Methods: 48 patients were included in this retrospective study by chart review. The patients were divided into two groups. Each group underwent radial forearm free flap (Group 1) and anterolateral thigh free flap (Group 2) after wide excision of oral cancer. Flap size, operation time, post-operative complication was compared between the two groups. Results: Flap size of anterolateral thigh flap was significantly bigger than that of radial forearm free flap. Operation time of anterolateral thigh flap was significantly shorter than that of radial forearm free flap. Conclusions: We conclude that anterolateral free flap was superior to radial forearm free flap in terms of operation time and complication rate in reconstruction for oral cancer.
