Free tensor fascia lata-iliac crest osteomusculocutaneous flap for reconstruction of combined maxillectomy and orbital floor defect.

abstract：:The reconstruction of small and thin defects in the orbital area using vascularized cortex is described herein. This vascularized cortex is taken from the medial supracondyle area of the femur because a small, thin, and flexible bone can be harvested. We have treated 5 patients with orbital bony defects that would hav...
