Özet

Cheek defects are common facial defects, especially after tumor ablation. Although primary repair yields the best aesthetic outcome, wide defects require flap resurfacing. Among the flap techniques, the cervicofacial rotation/advancement flap is one of the most common. In cases with eyelid involvement, it is very unlikely that a local flap would single-handedly resurface the defect and additional flaps must be used.
