One-Step Laryngotracheal Reconstruction With Prefabricated Corticoperiosteal Flap
In this report, we present a laryngotracheal reconstruction with a buccal mucosa–prefabricated medial femoral condyle free flap, after chondroma excision in a 1-step procedure. Functional results are promising and were confirmed by endoscopy and computed tomography examination 12 months postoperatively. This reconstruction-with-prefabrication technique, among others, may be used in the reconstruction of different regions like craniofacial bone defects, apart from larynx and trachea.
