Comparison Study Between Coverage Choices for Radial Forearm Free Flap Donor Site

thickness skin graft for coverage of the radial forearm free flap donor site. Patients and Methods：25 patients who was reconstructed with radial forearm free flap for head and neck cancer were reviewed retrospectively. Results：The graft loss rates of full thickness skin graft were less than split thickness skin graft or split thickness skin graft with dermal substitutes. The recovery times of donor site and skin graft donor site of full thickness skin graft were also shorter than split thickness skin graft or split thickness skin graft with dermal substitutes. Skin tex- ture and aesthetic results of donor site were improved and complications as itching and pain sensation were de-creased. Conclusion：Full thickness skin grafts with inguinal skin should be considered for patients requiring a radial forearm free flap.
