Sequential chimeric anterolateral thigh flap for reconstruction of through-and-through oropharyngeal defects with no suitable neck recipient vessels.

abstract：:The feasibility and possible effects of palatal soft-tissue expansion in palatal repair were studied. A prospective longitudinal animal experiment was performed in 75 growing cats assigned to 5 groups. In 31 cats, a midline defect was made, and bipediced flaps were raised at the age of 8 weeks (stimulated Langenbeck o...
