The radial forearm free flap: our experience in solving donor site problems

M Juretic et al. J Craniomaxillofac Surg. 1992 May-Jun.

Abstract

Special attention is paid to the problems of the donor site (the forearm) in a series of 75 patients who underwent orofacial malignancy excision. An island skin flap from the ulnar aspect of the forearm, used in 15 patients, is reported to be an improvement of the surgical technique. No healing complications were observed, and the aesthetic and functional results were very good.
