Abstrakt: Temporo-mandibular ramus osteomuscular flap (TMROMF) was used for the reconstruction of maxillary defect after unilateral maxillectomy in 12 patients, with success in 11. Thus, zygomaticofacial deformity, naso-oral fistula, speaking dysfunction and difficulty of denture reestablishment were prevented. 10 patients are able to resume their previous work and proper social activity after the operation. TMROMF is easier to perform with few serious complications.
