Reconstruction of Through-and-Through Cheek Defects With Folded Free Anterolateral Thigh Flaps

The free ALT flap has good pliability and can be folded for the reconstruction of both the inner and outer lining of through-and-through cheek defects. This flap presents good functional results at the recipient site with the additional advantages of minimal donor-site morbidity, a very acceptable esthetic result, and a high level of patient satisfaction.
