Common Uses of Free Flap Reconstruction:

  • Post-Oral Cancer Surgery Reconstruction – Restoring jaw, tongue, and soft tissue defects.
  • Facial Trauma & Bone Loss Repair – Rebuilding damaged or missing facial structures.
  • Jaw & Mandibular Reconstruction – Using fibula, iliac crest, or scapular bone grafts.
