Prepare the cheek by trimming away the scar tissue around the defect andby undermining the skin slightly. If it is necessary to replace the mucosa do soby implanting the flap A, B, C, D (Fig. ii8). 2. Outline the flap E, F, G. Make the straight incision G, H along theline of the anterior temporal artery. Expose the artery, but do not injure it orgrasp it with forceps. Dissect the artery free along with a considerable amountof surrounding tissue so as to preserve the nerve supply of the vessel. Make theincision H, I through the skin alone and prepare a bed for the artery. Completethe mobilization of flap E, F, G and place it in the defect in the cheek.
