  • New Buccinator myomucosal island flap: anatomic study and clinical application.
    Plastic and Reconstructive Surgery, 1999
    Co-Authors: Zhenmin Zhao, Yiping Yan, Ming-yong Yang, Wei-qing Huang, Yuanbo Liu, Hong-feng Zhai, Ji Jin
    Abstract:

    The authors studied the vascular anatomy of the Buccinator Muscle by dissecting fresh cadavers. The anatomy of the buccal branches of the facial artery consistently confirmed the existence of a posterior buccal branch, a few inferior buccal branches, and anterior buccal branches to the posterior, inferior, and anterior portions of the Buccinator. The buccal artery and posterior buccal branch anastomose to each other and ramify over the Muscle. Several veins originate from the lateral aspect of the Muscle, converge into the buccal venous plexus, and drain into the facial vein (from two to four tributaries) or into the pterygoid plexus and the internal maxillary vein (from the buccal vein). These vessels and nerves enter the posterior half of the Buccinator posterolaterally. The facial artery and vein are located at variable distances from each other around the oral commissure and the nasal base. Two patterns of Buccinator musculomucosal island flaps supplied by these buccal arterial branches are proposed in this article. The buccal musculomucosal neurovascular island flap (posteriorly based), supplied by the buccal artery, its posterior buccal branch, and the long buccal nerve, can be passed through a tunnel under the pterygomandibular ligament for closure of mucosal defects in the palate, pharyngeal sites, the alveolus, and the floor of the mouth. The buccal musculomucosal reversed-flow arterial island flap (superiorly based), supplied by the distal portion of the facial artery through the anterior buccal branches, can be used to close mucosal defects in the anterior hard palate, alveolus, maxillary antrum, nasal floor and septum, lip, and orbit. The authors have used the flaps in 12 patients. There has been no flap necrosis, and results have been satisfactory, both aesthetically and functionally.

  • Reconstrucción de defectos palatinos con el colgajo de músculo buccinador
    'Human Factors and Ergonomics Society', 2005
    Co-Authors: Cuesta Gil M., Pujol Romanyà R., Navarro Cuéllar C., Duarte Ruiz B., Navarro Vila C., Nieto H., Bucci T.
    Abstract:

    Abstract: Defects of the palate that are of a significant size require reconstruction with local or distant flaps in order to avoid important functional sequelae such as oronasal regurgitation and rhinolalia. The Buccinator Muscle flap, described by Bozola in 1989 for closing palatal fistulas and for reconstruction of the soft and hard palate, represents an important therapeutic alternative for this type of defect. In this work we present an anatomic-clinical description and the surgical technique with the myomucosal flap of Buccinator Muscle, as well as a small series of patients operated on in the Gregorio Marañon Hospital from the year 2000 to the year 2004. Of a total of 12 patients with palatal defects that were reconstructed using this flap, 4 were men and 8 were women. The defects in 5 cases were located in the hard palate and 7 were located in the soft palate. Primary reconstruction was carried out following oncological resectioning in 10 cases, while in 1 case secondary reconstruction was carried out after failure with a temporalis Muscle flap, and in another patient it was used to cover a preprosthetic bone graft. The aesthetic and functional results were excellent in 10 out of 12 cases. The most common complication was dehiscence of the suture which occurred in five cases, three of which were resolved spontaneously and in another two cases it was necessary to re-operate. The Buccinator Muscle strikes us an interesting reconstruction technique for defects of the palate. It represents a surgical method that is simple and hardly aggressive, with very few sequelae and good results. It can also be used for resolving defects of the lip, tongue, jugal mucosa and of the orbits, as well as for cases of velopalatal insufficiency.Los defectos palatinos de un tamaño significativo precisan reconstrucciones con colgajos locales o a distancia para evitar secuelas funcionales importantes, como regurgitación oronasal y rinolalia.

De un total de 12 pacientes con defectos palatinos que fueron reconstruidos utilizando este colgajo, 4 eran hombres y 8 mujeres. La localización del defecto fue en 5 casos en el paladar duro y en 7 en el paladar blando. Se realizaron reconstrucciones primarias tras resecciones oncológicas en 10 casos, mientras que en 1 caso ha sido una reconstrucción secundaria tras fracaso de un colgajo temporal y, en otro paciente se sutilizó para cubrir un injerto óseo preprotésico. Los resultados estéticos y funcionales fueron excelentes en 10 de los 12 casos. La complicación más frecuente fue la dehiscencia de sutura que se presentó en 5 casos, 3 de los cuales fueron dehiscencias parciales que se resolvieron espontáneamente y, en los otros 2 casos, se precisó una reintervención. El colgajo de músculo buccinador parece una interesante técnica reconstructiva para defectos palatinos. Constituye un método quirúrgico sencillo, poco agresivo, con mínimas secuelas y buenos resultados. También puede ser empleado para resolver defectos de labio, lengua, mucosa yugal y órbitas, así como en casos de insuficiencia velopalatina

  • Traumatic buccal fat pad herniation in an infant
    Elsevier, 2019
    Co-Authors: Giulia De Giorgi, Rossella Angotti, Giulia Fusi, Lorenzo Salerni, Mario Messina, Francesco Molinaro
    Abstract:

    Traumatic herniation of buccal fat pad (BFP) is very rare, usually seen in young children, from 5 months to 12 years of age. A minor injury or perforation of the Buccinator Muscle and buccal mucosa can cause the extrusion of the buccal fat pad into the oral cavity. A differential diagnosis is very important but a history of trauma, an absence of masses before the accident, anatomical site and fatty appearance should suggest the correct diagnosis. The treatment options are usually excision or repositioning of the herniated fat. For the present case report, a 7 month-old boy, diagnosed with traumatic buccal fat pad herniation, was successfully treated with surgical excision.
