Abstrakt     Between 1985 and 1991 microvascular free flaps (MFF) were used for the reconstruction of extensive defects after ablative surgery of head and neck carcinomas in 36 patients, treated at the University Department of Otorhinolaryngology and Cervicofacial Surgery in Ljubljana. For the reconstruction of skin or mucosa radial forearm flaps were used most frequently, but apart from this, free jejunum grafts, lateral arm and latissimus dorsi flaps were used as well. In 5 patients with carcinoma of the floor of the mouth, reconstruction of the front part of the mandible was performed after segmental mandibulectomy by means of an osseous iliac crest flap, radial forearm or scapular osteocutaneous flap.
