alexandrossfakianakis shared this article with you from Inoreader Comparison between the radial forearm and superficial circumflex iliac artery perforator free flaps for oral soft tissue reconstruction via International Journal of Oral and Maxillofacial Surgery via MedWorm.com The radial forearm free flap (RFFF) is widely used for oral reconstruction. The superficial circumflex iliac artery perforator (SCIP) flap is an increasingly utilized alternative. The cases of 165 patients who received either an RFFF or SCIP flap for oral reconstruction at Chris O ′Brien Lifehouse, Sydney were reviewed. The aim was to report on patient, pathology, treatment, and outcome variables and to compare these between the two flap groups. A RFFF was used in 126 patients and a SCIP flap in 39 patients.
