초록

The reconstruction of huge surgical defect is one of the major problems in the surgical treatment of the cancer of the head and neck. The latissimus dorsi myocutaneous flap, which is one of the most versatile myocutaneous flap, is a reliable method of reconstruction for extensive wounds in the head and neck. Due to the difficult patient positioning, its uses are reserved for the extensive defects or for the cases in which other traditional flaps have failed. The authors successfully reconstructed large surgical defects in the head and neck region using LDMC flap in five patients.
