Abstract

More than two thirds of oral cancer patients present in advanced stage in India, from subsites like Buccal mucosa and tongue often present with N3b nodes with skin involvement. This type of advanced disease usually requires composite resection and extended radical neck dissection. If both the defects are adjacent to each other can be addressed by bipaddle PMMC. If the signicant normal tissue lies between the primary and neck defects [level 2b,3,5] it should be Reconstruction with a single free ap or combination of free and locoregional aps. Free ap reconstruction requires expertise and other ancillary instruments which is difcult to organize in COVID situation. We overcame this problem by designing the PMMC in a unique manner with two island skin paddles based on the pectoral branch of thoraco-acromial vessels to cover both the defects.
