Abstract
Temporoparietal fascial flap (TPFF) has been used in the reconstruction of a broad spectrum of complex defect of head & neck it can be used as pedicled flap or free flap. TPFF is extensively is good for reconstruction of auricular defects because it is fascial flap with ease of covering irregular surface. TPFF is supplied by the superficial temporal artery & vein and innervated by zygomatico-temporal branch of facial nerve and auriculotemporal nerve. The flap ranges from 2-4mm in thickness and can be harvested up to 17x14cm wide, it can include calvarian bone and enables primary closure of donor site. We carried out reconstruction of oral cavity defects by means of TPFF with a satisfactory result in two cases of oral cavity cancer.
