Muscle stapling technique for free muscle transfer to the face.

G A Turowski1, I Koshima, J Upton.   

Abstract

Free muscle transfer for facial reanimation can be facilitated by the use of a linear gastrointestinal stapler. This technique not only offers reliable muscle insertion at the recipient site but also helps to provide an adequate motor unit by facilitating safe muscle debulking, splitting, and tailoring.
