Vascularized composite flaps are often needed to replace missing premaxilla and palatal bone, oral and sinonasal lining, as well as external facial skin in these defects. The submental flap has the potential to provide all these various tissues with the added advantage of matching facial skin color and hair-bearing qualities and is available within the surgical field.</p><p><strong>Methods: </strong>A retrospective cohort study was carried out at Mayo Clinic Arizona.

The mean age of the cohort was 60.45 ± 16.57 years, with a male predominance (73.3%). Squamous cell carcinoma was the most common pathology (n = 12, 80%).
