Abstract
Buccal mucosa is one of the common subsite for oral carcinoma. Following excision of the buccal mucosa tumor mass various pedicled and free flaps have been used to reconstruct the oral cavity defect. In this age of free flaps various locoregional pedicled flaps have been underrated and overlooked and supraclavicular flap is one of them. This flap meets the functional and cosmetic acceptance of the buccal mucosa defect reconstruction with minimal morbidity to the donor site. This paper presents author's experience of using supraclavicular flap in 10 patients of carcinoma buccal mucosa. In all cases surgical defect was completely covered by the flap, there was no necrosis of the flap. Functional and cosmetic outcome was acceptable in all the patients without compromising oncological clearance.
