目的 通过对二腹肌后腹大体和显微解剖，观察二腹肌后腹的位置与毗邻关系，为临床治疗提供依据。 方法 2011年2月－2012年6月，对10具20侧成人尸体标本作解剖学研究，观察二腹肌后腹与周围相邻组织结构的位置。 结果 二腹肌后腹位置恒定，其深面有重要的神经血管。依次有寰椎横突、颈内静脉、枕动脉、副神经、颈外动脉、面动脉、舌下神经及耳后动脉等重要结构。 结论 掌握二腹肌后腹的外科解剖特点，在进行颌面外科手术时，可以避免损伤有关神经和血管等重要结构，具有重要的临床指导意义。
ObjectiveTo investigate the efficacy of anterolateral thigh (myocutaneous) flap designed with computed tomography angiography (CTA) to reconstruct oral and maxillofacial soft tissue defects.MethodsBetween January 2011 and December 2015, 23 cases of oral and maxillofacial tumors were treated. There were 14 males and 9 females with the age range from 45 to 72 years (mean, 56.8 years). There were 12 cases of tongue carcinoma, 5 cases of buccal mucosa carcinoma, 4 cases of mouth floor carcinoma, and 2 cases of oropharynx carcinoma; all were squamous cell carcinoma. According to standard TNM staging of the Union for International Cancer Control (UICC), 8 cases were rated as T2N0M0, 3 cases as T2N1M0, 1 case as T2N2M0, 4 cases as T3N0M0, 2 cases as T3N1M0, 2 cases as T3N2M0, 2 cases as T4N1M0, and 1 case as T4N2M0. The course of disease was 1-6 months (mean, 2.4 months). CTA was performed before operation to locate the perforator vessel and its surface projection of emerging point and to design anterolateral thigh (myocutaneous) flap by computer. The defects of soft tissue ranged from 6 cm×4 cm to 11 cm×7 cm after resection of tumor. The flap was used to repair defects, including 14 thinned anterolateral thigh flaps, 7 anterolateral thigh myocutaneous flaps, and 2 anterolateral bilobed flaps; and the flap area ranged from 7 cm× 5 cm to 12 cm×8 cm. The donor sites were sutured directly.ResultsCTA showed that myocutaneous perforators penetrated at the fascias of the vastus lateralis muscles in 22 cases with a location rate of 95.7% (22/23). Submandibular fistula occurred in 1 case at 5 days after operation and fistula healed after changed dressings. Other wounds at recipient site and donor site healed at primary stage. Anastomose with 2 vein was performed because of poor venous return in 1 case, and the flap survived. The other flaps survived well. All the patients were followed up 6-36 months (mean, 16.4 months). At 3 months after operation, the simplified recovery standard of speech function and swallow function was established according to the University of Washington Quality of Life Scale (UW-QOL). The speech and swallow function recovered satisfactorily in 22 cases, and not very satisfactorily in 1 case of well differentiated squamous cell carcinoma of the right mouth floor (T 4N1M0). No obvious tissue atrophy was observed in 23 cases. No dysfunction was found at the donor site. There was no tumor recurrence in 21 patients; 1 patient accepted the second operation due to lymphonodi metastasis of contralateral neck at 6 months after first operation, who died after 23 months; 1 patient died of distant metastasis at 10 months after first operation.ConclusionThe anterolateral thigh (myocutaneous) flap designed with CTA could well recover the morphology and function of the recipient site.
