Abstract

Abstract We evaluated the use of scalp flap in the large defect created in head-and-neck reconstruction surgeries with histopathologically confirmed oral squamous cell carcinoma. The patient had large defect after resection of the lesion, which was reconstructed with more than one flap. Scalp flap used as a second flap for extraoral lining, as it has a good blood supply from superficial temporal artery, favorable arc of rotation, and camouflage with hair-bearing skin.
