Bilateral Inferiorly Based Nasolabial Flaps for the Management of “Oral Submucous Fibrosis”: A Case Report

Abstract

Oral Submucous fibrosis [OSMF] is the premaligmant condition in which patient suffers from limited mouth opening and fibrous bands over buccal mucosa. Various medical and surgical modalities are being suggested in the literature for the management of OSMF. The present article reports one case of group III OSMF [as per classification by Khanna JN and Andrade NN (1995)] which was successfully managed in the department of “Oral & Maxillofacial Surgery” of M.A.Rangoonwala college of dental sciences and research centre, Pune. The surgical modality implemented was “bilateral release of fibrous bands [fibrotomy] ,coronoidectomy” and reconstruction at recipient site was done with bilateral nasolabial flaps.
