An analysis of primary reconstructive surgical treatment of 254 patients with carcinoma of the mouth mucosa and oral pharynx was made. The character of operative procedures for different localizations of the tumour is described. The primary reconstructive surgical treatment was shown to reduce the amount of postoperative complications to 11.4%, to keep intact the natural ways of respiration and nutrition at the early postoperative period. If without recidivation, about 70% of the patients continued working.
