Buccal Myomucosal Flap and Buccal Pad of Fat for the Closure of Oro-antral Fistula

September 12, 2023 updated by: Ahmed Abdellatif Abdelfatah, Tanta University

Double Layer of Buccal Myomucosal Flap and Buccal Pad of Fat for the Closure of Large Oro-antral Fistula

Oroantral fistula (OAF) is a pathological communication between the oral cavity and the maxillary sinus. A variety of surgical techniques have been developed, with recurrence rates of up to 33%7, mainly due to wound contraction and postoperative infection. To increase the success rates of OAF closure procedures, the use of double-layered closure techniques has developed, but most of these techniques alter the original oral anatomy and may result in significant postoperative morbidity.
