| الوصف: | Background Historical concerns over bone resorption and malunion of the osteocutaneous radial forearm free flap (OCRFFF) limited its widespread adoption for head and neck reconstruction, despite lack of outcomes data evaluating this notion. Methods A retrospective cohort study was performed including patients 18 years or older who underwent reconstruction of the mandible using an OCRFFF. Linear modeling and logistic regression were used to evaluate the change in bone volume and union over time. Results One hundred and twenty‐one patients were included in the study. A mixed effects linear model incorporating age, sex, treatment type, and number of bone segments did not demonstrate a significant loss of bone volume over time. A logistic regression model identified lack of adjuvant treatment and time to be significantly associated with complete union. Conclusion This study supports that the OCRFFF is a stable form of osseus reconstruction for defects of the head and neck. |
