Clinical Trial Summary

Lateral arm free flap harvesting has been well described, it however remains underused compared to other free flaps such as radial forearm and anterolateral thigh free flap. Due to its easy harvesting, low donor site morbidity, versatility as well as useful possibilities of modifications it should be considered more often as valuable reconstruction option in head and neck defect. With this publication we want to describe the operative technique, illustrate it with postoperative pictures and describe the outcome with 8 of our cases operated at University Hospital In Lausanne, Switzerland. The aim of this study is to be a useful tool for young surgeons and demonstrate the advantages of this useful flap in head and neck reconstructions.
