口腔或口咽部中等大小的粘膜缺损的重建是一个外科挑战。颊肌粘膜瓣似乎提供了“理想的重建”口腔/口咽缺损，因为它们携带薄，移动的，血管发达，和敏感的组织，如切除或丢失。方法通过回顾性分析和文献复习，提出颊肌粘膜瓣的新的、合理的、简化的分类命名法，明确了颊肌粘膜瓣的来源血管、皮瓣的组成和转移类型。结论颊肌肌粘膜瓣的命名有助于颊肌肌粘膜瓣的分类和推广。
Background Reconstruction of moderate-sized mucosal defects of the oral cavity or oropharynx represents a surgical challenge. Buccinator myomucosal flaps seem to provide "ideal reconstruction" of oral/oropharyngeal defects because they carry a thin, mobile, well-vascularized, and sensitive tissue, like that excised or lost. Nevertheless, these flaps are not immediately popular because of confusion surrounding the complex terminology used to name them.Methods After a retrospective study on our experience and a literature review, the authors propose a new rational and simplified nomenclature for the classification of buccinator myomucosal flaps, which clarifies the source vessel, the composition of the flap, and the type of transfer.Results According to this nomenclature, six types of buccinator myomucosal flaps are described.Conclusions This proposed nomenclature may bring a consensus on the classification of buccinator myomucosal flaps and can help their spread.
