Abstract

The scapula tip free flap is a well-suited flap for total maxillectomy reconstruction; however, when the orbital floor is included in the resection, an additional method of reconstruction is usually needed for the orbital floor, such as alloplastic material or bone grafts. In this chapter, a novel design of the Scapula tip free flap with a thin vascularized bone used for the orbital floor reconstruction after total maxillectomy is described.
