Microsurgical reconstructive algorithms for craniofacial defects have focused on soft-tissue flaps with or without conventional bone grafts. However, volumetric loss from muscle atrophy, bone resorption, and soft-tissue contraction limits long-term preservation of facial contour. Applying craniofacial principles of skeletal buttress support, the authors used composite vascularized bone flaps to reconstruct the soft tissue and the vertical and horizontal buttresses of the face. In this manner, facial proportions and aesthetics are maintained in composite tissue defects resulting from high-energy trauma or oncologic extirpation.
