Abstract
The recent development of myocutaneous flaps has ushered in an era of one‐stage reconstructions, which have changed the patterns of surgery for head and neck cancer. This article reviews the development of these flaps and the clinical applications at various sites of the head and neck. Personal experience with 31 consecutive myocutaneous flaps confirms the versatility and reliability of these new techniques.Keywords
