Fascio-cutaneous and fascio-periosteal free flaps for treatment of intermediate stage osteoradionecrosis of the jaws

Osteoradionecrosis (ORN) of the jaw is a potentially devastating consequence of head and neck irradiation. Despite recent advances, there are patients who fail to respond to conventional therapies. Historically, free flaps were reserved for advanced cases requiring segmental resection and composite...

description Osteoradionecrosis (ORN) of the jaw is a potentially devastating consequence of head and neck irradiation. Despite recent advances, there are patients who fail to respond to conventional therapies. Historically, free flaps were reserved for advanced cases requiring segmental resection and composite reconstruction, with early and intermediate disease treated more conservatively. We have adopted a more active surgical approach in selected intermediate cases. A retrospective review of patients with intermediate stage ORN who received debridement and either fascio-cutaneous or fascio-periosteal free flap reconstruction was performed. Demographic data, ORN severity, treatment, and outcomes are described. From 2019, 9 cases in 7 patients were identified. All cases were Notani grade II. There were 6 Epstein stage IIa and 3 Epstein stage IIIa. The mandible was the most common site (n = 8). Of the 7 patients, 2 had oropharyngeal primaries treated with chemoradiation, and 5 had oral cavity primaries treated with surgery and adjuvant radiation therapy. Three patients had prior hyperbaric oxygen therapy, and 2 had pentoxifylline/tocopherol therapy. After debridement, the radial forearm, ulnar artery perforator, and antero-lateral thigh fascio-cutaneous free flaps were each used in 1 case and the temporoparietal fascio-periosteal free flap was used in 6 cases. There was no recurrence or progression of ORN at the site of surgery, but 2 patients developed additional sites of ORN. For patients with unresponsive intermediate ORN, debridement and soft tissue free flap reconstruction is an alternative to ongoing conservative management or composite resection and reconstruction.
