The temporal osteocutaneous island (TOCI) flap was first performed in reconstruction of palatal defects by Furnas [8]. It consists of temporoparietal fascia, galea, pericranium and the cortical layer of parietal bone covered with pericranium. In this study, we present five patients with wide palatal

## Abstract ## Background. The purpose of this study was to evaluate morbidity, functional, and aesthetic outcomes in midface zygomaticomaxillary buttress reconstruction using the osteocutaneous radial forearm free flap (OCRFFF). ## Methods. A retrospective review of 24 consecutive patients that
We present six patients with maxillary and palate defects that were reconstructed with the radial forearm flap. Four patients had malignant neoplasms involving the maxilla, three with squamous cell carcinoma and the fourth with recurrent basal cell carcinoma. They were treated with excision and imme
## Abstract ## Objective/Hypothesis: To demonstrate that the osteocutaneous radial forearm free flap provides equivalent functional outcomes and improved morbidity compared to the fibular free flap in mandibular reconstruction. ## Study Design: Retrospective review. ## Methods: There were 168
