UNLABELLED: In order to reestablish the facial symmetry after the tumor removal, we can use sternocleidomastoid muscle transposition, dermis-fat graft, superficial musculoaponeurotic system (SMAS) plication, temporoparietal fascia flaps, microvascular free flaps and the platysma muscle flap. The technic depends on the size of the defect.
MATERIAL AND METHODS: In this study we present our results of using a superiorly based platysma myocutaneous flap for reconstruction of defects after extended parotidectomy. The patients were treated for malign tumor of parotid gland which invaded the skin.
RESULTS: All flaps were readily harvested at the time of tumor resection. Only two patients presented venous congestion. No flap was lost. There was no morbidity of donor site. The cosmetic outcome was satisfactory.
DISCUSSION: The platysma myocutaneous flap is an alternative to more complex reconstructive technics, such as free flap transfer, and gives a satisfactory cosmetic result.
CONCLUSIONS: The platysma myocutaneous flap is easy to harvest and has low donor site morbidity. The main disadvantage is represented by the vascularity problems.
