The DSPFFF was found to be useful and reliable for reconstructing composite and extensive head and neck defects, with an overall good functional outcome and a low-complication rate. The meta-analysis showed a better positive outcome on distally-based DSPFFF rather than proximally and distally-based DSPFFF. In addition, distally-based DSPFFF showed a lower complications rate when compared with proximally and distally-based DSPFFF.
