The trapezius myocutaneous flap for reconstruction of latreral skull base defects

Extensive tumor involving temporal bone may pose a difficult problem in reconstructive standpoint. These tumors are typically aggressive as well as locally advanced which require wide resections combined with parotidectomy and / or neck dissection resulting in extensive soft tissue and skin defects....
