ABSTRACT
Reconstruction of composite maxillofacial defects after tumor excision or trauma is
difficult. The role of the reconstructive surgeon is to have a diverse armamentarium
of reconstructive options to enable an aesthetic and functional reconstruction while
minimizing the morbidity to the patient. This article will present a systematic review
of composite maxillofacial reconstruction with free tissue transfer.
