Keloids present a challenging clinical problem due to their propensity for recurrence and need for adjuvant therapy. We present a case where a large keloid resection required free tissue transfer and immediate radiation therapy was employed 24 hours postoperatively. There were no significant issues with flap survival, wound healing, or recurrence 2 years postoperatively. This is the first case report of successful radiation treatment 1 day after reconstruction of the head and neck with a free flap. Laryngoscope, 131:E1818-E1820, 2021.
瘢痕疙瘩因其易于复发和需要辅助治疗而成为一个具有挑战性的临床问题。我们报告了一例病例，该病例中一个大的瘢痕疙瘩切除需要游离组织移植，并且在术后24小时采用了即时放射治疗。术后2年，皮瓣存活、伤口愈合或复发方面均无显著问题。这是首例关于头颈部游离皮瓣重建术后1天成功进行放射治疗的病例报告。《喉镜》，131:E1818 - E1820，2021年。
