Serratus Anterior-Rib Composite Flap as a Novel Approach for Tracheal Reconstruction.
Kyle A BoudreauxRoger BuiPeter HorwichBrent A ChangPublished in: The Annals of otology, rhinology, and laryngology (2022)
The serratus anterior-rib composite flap appears to be a suitable candidate for tracheal reconstruction and merits further analysis in this context. The flap's intrinsic incorporation of a perfused rib segment allows for reliable reconstruction of the neotrachea and maintenance of proximal dynamic airway support.
