Temporalis Muscle Flap is known to be a first choice rotational flap for oral reconstruction even though a few postoperative complications were reported in Literature. Among these, fascia necrosis may prolong recovery, increase discomfort and elevate sanitary cost. The aim of the study is to report the advantages of temporalis muscle flap without deep fascia in the reconstruction of the maxilla. The study group comprised seven patients aged between 43 and 64 years who underwent oral surgical reconstruction with TMF with no fascia. Reconstruction with the temporalis muscle flap was done in the same time of demolitive surgery and the same surgeon performed all the surgeries. In no case, TMF was covered with slough and this permitted to all our patients to undergo an easier rehabilitation with a low number of medications. Our experience showed that removing the fascia from TMF is a safe procedure that strongly decreased time of oral healing and improves patient comforts. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR] |
