The tongue flap is a suitable alternative to local mucoperiosteal flaps in closure of wide, persistent oronasal communications, surrounded by scarred and fibrotic tissue as a result of previously attempted palatoplasty. Herein, we report two cases with large recurrent oronasal communication closed using the anteriorly based dorsal tongue flap.
舌瓣是局部黏骨膜瓣的一种合适替代方法,用于关闭因先前腭裂修复术导致周围有瘢痕和纤维化组织的广泛、持续性口鼻瘘。在此,我们报告两例使用带蒂舌背瓣关闭巨大复发性口鼻瘘的病例。
