AbstractPectoralis major musculocutaneous flaps were used for reconstruction after transmaxillary buccopharyngectomy to treat 22 patients with large oropharyngeal tumors. Short and medium term results are discussed. Large excisions such as these raise many functional problems, even though the use of a musculocutaneous flap for reconstruction is a valid procedure from the anatomical point of view. The cancer prognosis must still be reserved as follow up is still limited for these cases.
