The effect of preoperative radiotherapy on complication rate after microsurgical head and neck reconstruction.
J Plast Reconstr Aesthet Surg. 2011; (11): 1454-9
The introduction of radiotherapy (XRT) has resulted in increased survival of patients diagnosed with head and neck malignancies. However, the potentially deleterious impact of radiotherapy on reconstructive efforts continues to be the subject of intense debate. The present study was designed to evaluate the effects of preoperative XRT on complication rates in patients undergoing microsurgical reconstruction of head and neck defects after oncosurgical resection.
