- The Complications of Osseous Reconstruction in the Head and Neck: A Systematic Review and Meta‐analysis Usman Khan Kalpesh Hathi Colin MacKay Martin Corsten Otolaryngology–Head and Neck Surgery AbstractObjectiveTo compare the postoperative complications of the fibular free flap (FFF), scapula free flap (SFF), and osteocutaneous radial forearm free flap (OCRFFF) following osseous reconstruction in the head and neck.Data SourcesPUBMED, EMBASE, Cochrane.Review MethodsA literature search and systematic review were performed using the Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta‐analysis guidelines. A meta‐analysis of proportions was conducted using a random effects model to compare operative time and postoperative complications.ResultsThe systematic review identified 26 studies comparing at least 1 variable of interest. The odds ratio estimates favored reduced rates of flap failure with the OCRFFF when compared to FFF (0.7, confidence interval [CI]: 0.29‐1.11, P < .001), while FFF and SFF were similar. The mean difference estimates for operative time significantly favored FFF over SFF (−51.04 minutes, CI: −92.73 to −9.35, P = .016) and OCRFFF over FFF (66.77 minutes, CI: 52.74‐80.8, P < .001). The FFF was more prone to hardware exposure, longer hospital stays, and donor site complications. Recipient wound complications and fistula rates were similar for all flap types.ConclusionDepending on the clinical context, the OCRFFF, FFF, and SFF are all robust options for reconstruction in the head and neck. The OCRFFF is associated with a reduced rate of flap failure and shorter operative times. The SFF requires longer operative times, although significant variation was observed between institutions. The FFF has broad reconstructive indications but is associated with more perioperative and long‐term complications. 10.1002/ohn.793 http://onlinelibrary.wiley.com/termsAndConditions#vor
