Kostares E, Kostares M, Kostare G, Tsakris A, Kantzanou M. Prevalence of free flap failure in mandibular osteoradionecrosis reconstruction: a systematic review and meta-analysis. Sci Rep 2024; 14:11087. [PMID: 38750124 PMCID: PMC11096303 DOI: 10.1038/s41598-024-61862-1] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 10/23/2023] [Accepted: 05/10/2024] [Indexed: 05/18/2024] Open
Abstract
Our study aimed to estimate the prevalence of total free flap failure following free flap reconstruction for mandibular osteoradionecrosis (mORN) and assess the impact of potential moderators on this outcome. A comprehensive systematic literature search was independently conducted by two reviewers using the Medline, Scopus, Web of Science and Cochrane Library databases. Quality assessment of the selected studies was performed, and prevalence estimates with 95% confidence intervals (CI) were calculated. Outlier and influential analyses were conducted, and meta-regression analyses was employed to investigate the effects of continuous variables on the estimated prevalence. Ultimately, forty-six eligible studies (involving 1292 participants and 1344 free flaps) were included in our meta-analysis. The findings of our study revealed a prevalence of 3.1% (95% CI 1.3-5.4%) for total free flap failure after reconstruction for mORN. No study was identified as critically influential, and meta-regression analysis did not pinpoint any potential sources of heterogeneity. These findings provide valuable insights for researchers and serve as a foundation for future investigations into the management of mandibular osteoradionecrosis and the prevention of free flap failure in this context.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE Describe a novel technique for reconstruction of complex defects involving supraorbital rim and orbital roof. METHODS Retrospective chart review and description of surgical technique. RESULTS Four patients underwent tumor resection with neurosurgery (2 intraosseous hemangioma, 1 meningioma, and 1 ossifying fibroma), with mean tumor size of 42.6 cubic centimeters on preoperative imaging. All defects involved supraorbital rim and orbital roof. Patients were reconstructed with autogenous osseous rib graft for structure and contour and anterolateral thigh fascia lata (ALTFL) free flap to provide robust vascularity to rib bone and as a barrier between skull base dura and the orbit and/or sinonasal cavities. Two patients underwent resection and reconstruction using minimal access incisions, and two underwent major cranial and skull base resections. All flaps are vascularized via superficial temporal vessels. On postoperative follow-up (mean 33.5 months, range 8-48), all patients report no vision change or diplopia, with excellent contour symmetry to contralateral orbit. Follow-up imaging (mean 29.5 months, range 3-48) demonstrated maintained orbital volume and retention of rib bone graft compared to immediate postoperative imaging. There were no complications related to graft use. Minor complications include 1 patient with cerebrospinal fluid leak managed with lumbar drain placement and 1 patient with mild enophthalmos at 7-month follow-up. CONCLUSION We describe a series of patients who underwent a novel technique for reconstruction of complex defects involving supraorbital rim and orbital roof with autogenous osseous rib and vascularized ALTFL-free flap with excellent functional and cosmetic outcomes. This can be accomplished using minimal access techniques to minimize patient morbidity. LEVEL OF EVIDENCE 4 Laryngoscope, 134:654-658, 2024.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE To report the microorganisms and their antibiotic sensitivity profile from tissue cultures and stains at the time of anterolateral thigh fascia lata (ALTFL) rescue flap for management of mandibular osteoradionecrosis (ORN). METHODS Retrospective chart review of patients who underwent ALTFL rescue flap for native mandibular ORN between 2011 and 2022. RESULTS Twenty-six cases comprising 24 patients (mean age 65.4 years, 65.4% male) with mandibular ORN from whom tissue cultures and gram stain were obtained at the time of ALTFL rescue flap. 57.7% grew bacterial species, while 34.6% grew fungal species. Multibacterial speciation was noted in 26.9% of cultures. A combination of bacterial and fungal growth was also seen in 15.4% of cases. All gram-positive cocci (GPC) were pansensitive to antibiotics except for one case of Staphylococcus aureus, which was resistant to levofloxacin. Gram-negative bacilli (GNB) species were isolated in 50.0% of cases. All fungal growth was due to Candida species. No growth was noted in 23.1% of cases. Multidrug resistance was noted in 53.8% of cases when GNB was isolated. CONCLUSION We report 76.9% of our cases of mandibular ORN had microbial growth from tissue cultures obtained at the time of the ALTFL rescue flap. Fungal growth was noted in a substantial number of cases and should be obtained as a specimen when pursuing culture-driven antibiotic therapy. Most GPCs were pansensitive to antibiotics, while GNBs were often the harbinger of multidrug resistant mandibular ORN. LEVEL OF EVIDENCE 4 Laryngoscope, 134:166-169, 2024.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Multiple methods exist for skull base reconstruction of defects created by expanded endonasal approaches. While the nasoseptal flap (NSF) has been well established as the workhorse of mucosal reconstruction in complex skull base defects in multi-layered closures, a variety of options exist for the inner layer of multilayer reconstruction, including fascia lata (FL). OBJECTIVE To present our experience and outcomes in utilizing FL in multiple ways to reconstruct a wide variety of complex skull base defects. METHODS Retrospective review was performed from May 2017 to February 2022 to identify 50 consecutive patients who underwent endoscopic skull base reconstruction using FL. RESULTS FL was employed for reconstruction in 50 patients included in the study: 37 undergoing primary expanded endonasal skull base surgery and 13 revision cases. A wide range of complex pathology was treated, with meningioma and craniopharyngioma being the two most common. FL was utilized as a "button" graft (34/50, 68.0%), free graft inlay/onlay (13/50, 26.0%), and as a button graft combined with onlay (3/50, 6.0%). Expanded surgery defects addressed included tuberculum sella/sphenoid planum (36/50, 72.0%), clivus (6/50, 12.0%), and cribriform/planum (8/50, 16.0%). Successful reconstruction with fascia lata was accomplished in 46/50 cases (92%), with only 4 cases (8%) requiring revision for post-op CSF leak. Donor-site complications were rare with only 1 case (2.0%) of post-op seroma. CONCLUSION FL, usually with NSF, offers a versatile option for the reconstruction of challenging defects with excellent outcomes and minimal morbidity. FL is emerging as a workhorse for reconstruction of the inner layer of complex skull base defects.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Resected oral cavity carcinoma defects are often reconstructed with osteocutaneous or soft-tissue free flaps, but risk of osteoradionecrosis (ORN) is unknown. METHODS This retrospective study included oral cavity carcinoma treated with free-tissue reconstruction and postoperative IMRT between 2000 and 2019. Risk-regression assessed risk factors for grade ≥2 ORN. RESULTS One hundred fifty-five patients (51% male, 28% current smokers, mean age 62 ± 11 years) were included. Median follow-up was 32.6 months (range, 1.0-190.6). Thirty-eight (25%) patients had fibular free flap for mandibular reconstruction, whereas 117 (76%) had soft-tissue reconstruction. Grade ≥2 ORN occurred in 14 (9.0%) patients, at a median 9.8 months (range, 2.4-61.5) after IMRT. Post-radiation teeth extraction was significantly associated with ORN. One-year and 10-year ORN rates were 5.2% and 10%, respectively. CONCLUSIONS ORN risk was comparable between osteocutaneous and soft-tissue reconstruction for resected oral cavity carcinoma. Osteocutaneous flaps can be safely performed with no excess concern for mandibular ORN.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES Osteoradionecrosis (ORN) of the skull base and craniovertebral junction is a challenging complication of radiation therapy (RT). Severe cases often require surgical intervention through a multi-modal approach. With the evolution in endoscopic surgery and advances in skull base reconstruction, there is an increasing role for microvascular free tissue transfer (MFTT). We describe an endoscopic-assisted approach for the management of ORN of the skull base using fascia lata for MFTT. STUDY DESIGN Retrospective case series. METHODS Between 2017 and 2021, a review of all cases in which fascia lata MFTT was utilized for skull base ORN was performed. Patient demographics, preoperative characteristics, and postoperative outcomes with long-term follow-up were reviewed. RESULTS Five patients were identified. Mean duration to onset of ORN was 17 months following RT. A trial of antibiotics, hyperbaric oxygen (HBO), and/or limited debridement was attempted without success. Refractory pain and progressive osteomyelitis were unifying symptoms. All patients underwent endoscopic debridement of the affected region of ORN prior to MFTT. Vascularized fascia lata was inset through a combined endonasal and transoral corridor. There was improvement in chronic pain in the postop setting with no patients requiring continued antibiotics or HBO therapy. Mean post-op follow-up was 23 months. CONCLUSIONS With continued evolution in endoscopic, minimally invasive approaches, there is an expanding indication for early surgical management in refractory ORN. Fascia lata MFTT is a novel and effective strategy for the management of ORN of the skull base and upper cervical spine with excellent postoperative outcomes and limited patient morbidity.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES To analyze charges, complications, survival, and functional outcomes for definitive surgery of mandibular osteoradionecrosis (ORN). MATERIALS AND METHODS Retrospective analysis of 76 patients who underwent segmental mandibulectomy with reconstruction from 2000 to 2009. RESULTS Complications occurred in 49 (65%) patients and were associated with preoperative drainage (odds ratio [OR] 4.40, 95% confidence interval [CI] 1.01-19.27). The adjusted median charge was $343 000, and higher charges were associated with double flap reconstruction (OR 8.15, 95% CI 2.19-30.29) and smoking (OR 5.91, 95% CI 1.69-20.72). Improved swallow was associated with age <67 years (OR 3.76, 95% CI 1.16-12.17) and preoperative swallow (OR 3.42, 95% CI 1.23-9.51). Five-year ORN-recurrence-free survival was 93% while overall survival was 63% and associated with pulmonary disease (HR [hazard ratio] 3.57, 95% CI 1.43-8.94). CONCLUSIONS Although recurrence of ORN is rare, surgical complications are common and charges are high. Poorer outcomes and higher charges are associated with preoperative factors.
