| الوصف: | Background:. Head and neck surgery sometimes causes small defects, and salvage surgery after chemoradiotherapy poses some risk because of damage to the surgical site from the previous treatment. We have developed a novel thyroid gland flap for head and neck surgical reconstruction and here we describe elevating the flap, including arc rotation, size, and suture technique, and our outcomes to date. Methods:. Thyroid gland flap reconstruction was performed in 13 cases (11 patients) between July 2009 and May 2020. The clinical importance and adverse effects of the procedure were examined. Thyroid function and blood flow of the flap were assessed, and the status of the flap and irradiated recipient tissue was examined histopathologically. Results:. Median age at surgery was 64.6 years (range 49–77 years). Two of the patients underwent reconstruction with a thyroid gland flap twice. There were 4 cases of primary head and neck cancer resection with neck dissection in which the flap was harvested from the thyroid gland as reinforcement. In 1 case, surgery was performed for cervical esophageal diverticulum. In all cases, the arc was limited to 6 cm and suturing was basic. There were no complications of the surgical procedure, and the postoperative course was uneventful. Contrast-enhanced computed tomography revealed adequate enhancement of the flap. Postoperative thyroid function was normal. The thyroid gland flap was firmly adapted and fused with the irradiated recipient tissue. Conclusion:. The thyroid gland flap could be an effective tissue flap fed by the superior thyroid arteriovenous pedicle for head and neck reconstruction. |
