For patients affected by far advanced lower lip cancer, with great local tumor destruction but few or no metastases, we advocate radical resection. Here we describe a method for these repairs, using two deltopectoral flaps. It produces a good functional result and satisfactory appearance. No recurrences have been observed in our 5 cases during a two-year follow-up.

Five years of use of more than 200 delto-pectoral flaps have shown its great qualities in repairing vast losses of substance from the cervico-facial area. The techniques of application are very varied and depend upon the cases to be treated.
Anaylsing 67 cases of facial injury treated at the Henri Mondor Hospital in Créteil, the authors consider the various problems raised by these injured patients. -first aid, -methods of protection of the airway, -surgical management, -anaesthetic management and resuscitation, -problems of post-operative supervision, -methods of feeding. Owing to the localisation of these lesions, and the surgical methods, these are high risk injured patients who raise complex problems in the pre, per and post-operative periods, dominated by maintenance of the permeability of the airway. A specialised multidisciplinary team ensures coordination of the various acts.
The possibility of reconstruction following vast losses of substance makes it possible to propose curative treatment for very advanced cancer, with a satisfactory quality of survival. Such vast losses of substance may be treated in a two-stage procedure using a delto-pectoral flap, the distal extremity of which is folded over upon itself.
