   Dec 3, 2021 · The FAMM flap can be used for reconstruction of medium-size defects of the oral cavity with functional outcomes similar to the RFFF while decreasing the associated costs and morbidity. The radial forearm free flap (RFFF) is the most commonly used flap for defects of the oral cavity.

   We propose the use of the FAMM flap for improved tongue function in the setting where the defect is too large for primary closure, but where free tissue transfer would provide coverage where the volume of the flap would interfere with tongue function.

   Can FAMM flaps be used for facial reconstruction?

   • This flap is employed in the reconstruction of the floor of the mouth, alveolar cleft surgery, and tongue defect repair. Previous studies have discussed the use of FAMM flaps for facial reconstructions. However, there are no current and updated comprehensive reviews discussing the use of FAMM flaps in facial reconstruction.

   Can a FAMM flap be used to reconstruct a medium-size defect?

   • The use of the FAMM flap for reconstructing medium-size defects in selected patients is associated with lower costs, shorter OR time, similar functional outcomes and a tendency to lower complication rates.

   What is a modified FAMM flap?

   • In the modified inferiorly based FAMM flap described by Duranceau et al, the anterior incision of the flap is extended into the alveolar crest to reach the defect. 19 The base of the flap is then dissected in a subperiosteal plane over the alveolar crest up to the floor of mouth defect.

   Which flap is used in FOM reconstruction?

   • The FAMM flap, used in FOM reconstruction, is based inferiorly (antegrade flow) for all patients. The length of the flap is tailored proportionally to the size of the defect. The Stensen's duct limits the width of the flap posteriorly, which is kept under 3 cm to avoid tension of closure of donor site.

   Nov 22, 2011 · The FAMM flap is presently our preferred method of reconstruction for small to medium-sized FOM defects. It provides an elastic cushion for prosthetic apparatus, remains malleable, and does not shrink postoperatively. 6 Also, its reliability, ease of harvest, proximity to the defect and similar mucosal lining, absence of external scar, and low ...
