Summary A series of safe, simple and single-staged reconstructions following radical resection of maxillary antral carcinomas with soft tissue involvement is presented. These reconstructions were performed using free triple-folded latissimus dorsi myocutaneous flaps revascularised via the facial vessels. This technique can be safely used in irradiated patients and, when indicated, allows for the administration of early postoperative radiotherapy, thus improving the potential cure rate. Advantages and disadvantages of the technique are discussed.
