Abstract
• This communication describes the technique of the palatal island flap and its usefulness in intraoral reconstruction, with a modification for increasing its extension by means of the palatine foramen free-up procedure. The other modalities, with their attendant advantages and disadvantages for intra-oral reconstruction, are briefly reviewed. (Arch Otolaryngol 103:598-599, 1977)Keywords
