Results of immediate reconstruction of the defects resulting from excision of cancer of the cheek, lower jaw, upper jaw and lip in 13 patients using temporal island, deltopectoral and cervicoacromial flaps have been described. The surgical techniques have been outlined. Previous radiotherapy is not a contraindication for primary excisional and reconstructive procedures although the incidence of postoperative gangrene of the flap was greater in these cases.
