Maxillectomy and midfacial defects
Due to resection of tumors involving orbit, nasal cavity,
palate, paranasal sinuses, intraoral mucosa
Cause major functional consequences
• Deglutition, speech, orbital function
Cause esthetic sequelae
Dental rehabilitation
Prosthesis (obturator) vs. Free-tissue transfer
Surgical reconstruction
Soft tissue: radial forearm(RF), anterolateral thigh(ALT),
latissimus dorsi(LD), rectus abdominis(RA)
Bone & soft tissue: iliac crest(IC), fibula, scapula
Reconstruction of maxillary defects caused by tumor
resection or trauma in the head and neck area
The presence of a healed wound
Separation of the oral and nasal cavities
Restoration of maxillary buttresses
Restoration of functional dentition, mastication, and
deglutition
Restoration of the midfacial contours (Futran ND and Mendez E, 2006; Triana RJ et al, 2000)
Approach to reconstruction
Extent of resection
• Volume vs. surface area requirements
Assessment of critical structures
• Palate, oral commissure, nasal airway, eyelids
Need for bone replacement
• Orbital floor
• Anterior arch of maxilla
Need for soft tissue bulk or resurfacing (Santamaria E and Cordeiro PG, 2006)
Background
To introduce the experience of the usage of free flaps for
maxillectomy reconstruction
To share our reconstruction algorithm
Objectives
During 18 months
Feb. 2009 ~ Aug. 2009, Mar. 2012 ~ Jan. 2013
13 cases of maxillectomy reconstruction
Male 11 : Female 2
Mean age: 58.8 (41~72) years old
Retrospectively medical records reviewed
Types of defects, reconstruction methods, and outcomes
Materials and Methods
The content, especially the orbital content and bony
structure, and size of the maxillectomy defect, tumor
characteristics and patient’s prognosis should be considered
in the selection of maxillectomy reconstruction.
The iliac crest free flap might be one of the best options to
reconstruct the bony defect after maxillectomy.
