Oral cavity cancers present unique challenges due to the intricate anatomy and essential functions of this region. Optimal functional and aesthetic restoration involving complex reconstructive options are required to treat such conditions. The authors share their extensive experience in head and neck reconstruction within this text.

This practical colour atlas reflects the authors' extensive and wide ranging experience in the realm of head and neck reconstruction. In hopsitals with high case loads a variety of reconstructive options are used, including local and regional flap options as viable alternatives to the more intricate free flap reconstructions. By including numerous case examples illustrated with clear photographs, instructive stepwise explanations, access to operative video clips, and expert commentary from authors with decades of experience, the art and science of reconstructive oral cavity surgery is superbly presented.

Reconstructive surgery forms an essential component of the curricula for postgraduate examinations for ENT, plastic surgery and OMFS. Surgeons in training often find this area difficult to learn due to lack of exposure and practical experience. This practical guide benefits both residents and experienced surgeons in optimising their skills in clinical presentation assessment, surgical and non-surgical management of cancer in the head and neck region, and the diverse options available for succesful oral cavity reconstruction.
