The article presents the clinical results of using a new surgical method, involving the reverse perforator submental flap for reconstruction of soft tissue defects in the maxillofacial area in 5 patients aged from 41 to 62 years. The purpose of the study was to expand the indications for the use of the submental flap. A feature of the method is the sampling of a primary thin perforator submental flap with reverse blood flow with a minimal risk of postoperative complications. An algorithm for surgical flap taking has been developed. The study proves the safety and efficiency of the proposed method.
