Brief Summary: The goal of this clinical trial is to compare the postoperative outcomes based on superficial temporal versus cervical recipient vessels for midface and scalp advanced oncologic defects using free tissue flap for reconstruction

The main question it aims to answer is

Which recipient vessel is most suitable for performing microanastomosis using free flaps for advanced midface and scalp oncologic defect

Participants will be undergo resection of advanced malignant tumors of the midface and scalp with subsequent oncological reconstruction using free tissue flap

Researchers will compare two groups where those in whom superficial temporal vessels will be used as the recipient vessels group A and those in whom cervical vessels will be used as the recipient vessels group B to see if there is a recipient vessel who is most suitable for performing microanastomosis using free flaps for advanced midface and scalp oncologic defect
Detailed Description: Advanced oncologic defects of the midface and scalp are a significant challenge to the reconstructive head neck surgeon who must consider the need for midfacial projection rehabilitation and function restoration Free flaps reconstruction in the midface and scalp region are the gold standard for advanced cases There is no consensus in the literature on which recipient vessel is most suitable for performing microanastomosis using free flaps for advanced midface and scalp oncologic defect The aim of this clinical trial is prospectively compare the results of microvascular flap reconstruction of midface and scalp advanced oncologic defects using superficial temporal versus cervical as recipient vessels This is a parallel trial with permuted block randomization of patients who will be undergone a midface and scalp oncologic reconstruction with free tissue flap Two groups will be analyzed those in whom superficial temporal vessels will be used as the recipient vessels group A and those in whom cervical vessels will be used as the recipient vessels group B Allocation ratio will de 11 participants Patient gender and age cause and localization of the defect flap choice for reconstruction recipient vessels intraoperative outcome postoperative course and complications were recorded and analyzed Considering that this is a disease with rare staging the calculated sample size was 26 but it will be increased by 30 total of 34 participants who will be selected since the death rate of these patients ranges from 8-25 A Fishers exact test will be used to compare outcomes between the 2 groups
