Cross cheek dumbbell-shaped radial forearm free flap for bilateral trismus release

Trismus in post-radiotherapy patients is mostly secondary to fibrosis of buccal mucosa and muscles of mastication. After releasing trismus, mucosal defect needs to be covered with soft and supple tissue. We used a non-conventional method to cover this defect i.e. dumbbell-shape forearm free-flap bas...

description Trismus in post-radiotherapy patients is mostly secondary to fibrosis of buccal mucosa and muscles of mastication. After releasing trismus, mucosal defect needs to be covered with soft and supple tissue. We used a non-conventional method to cover this defect i.e. dumbbell-shape forearm free-flap based on a single radial artery.
