However, all these options have their shortcomings.\n\nWhen reconstructing particular oral cavity defect the tissue used should be reliable; functional and cosmetically acceptable with minimum donor site morbidity and match the recipient site in terms of color, texture and thickness. The submental island flap (SMI-flap) which has been first introduced by Martin et al in 1990, meets all these requirements and due to its optimal location, ease of harvest, and favorable arc of rotation, the SMI-flap has gained acceptance as a simple, reliable and convenient to repair defects of tongue and oral cavity cancer.\n\nThe oncological safety of submental flap in oral cancer patient still debate, this is due to its proximity to the main nodal basins of levels 1A and 1B and the possibility of transfer of occult metastatic lymph node to the recipient site during reconstruction.\n\nin addition some authors has not been recommended submental flap for cases with clinically or radiologically established nodal disease as it might compromise the oncological resection and continuity of neck dissection and so alternative options should be considered. The contralateral submental island flap (CSMI-flap) is believed to offer such alternate option for patient with contralateral negative node.\n\nour a priori-hypothesis is that utilization of the CSMI-flap is not related to an altered prognosis in tongue squamous cell carcinoma patients. In order to test this hypothesis, we will compare the oncological outcome of group of patients receive CSMI-flap with the results of another group of patients not receive CSMI-flap and close tongue defect by primary closure, which is another well-established concept of management tongue cancer defect.'}, 'eligibilityModule': {'sex': 'ALL', 'stdAges': ['CHILD', 'ADULT', 'OLDER_ADULT'], 'healthyVolunteers': False, 'eligibilityCriteria': 'Inclusion Criteria:\n\n* Patient with T1\\&T2 tongue squamous cell carcinoma.\n\nExclusion Criteria:\n\n* Patients with contralateral N positive.\n* Patients with previous neck surgery that interrupt contralateral facial artery or vein.\n* Patients with prior radiotherapy to the neck.\n* Patients with lesions crossing the midline, or those reaching the base of tongue requiring total glossectomy.\n* Patients second primary tumors at the time of diagnosis.\n* Patient with recurrent tongue squamous cell carcinoma.'}, 'identificationModule': {'nctId': 'NCT03440151', 'briefTitle': 'Oncological Outcome of Contralateral Submental Artery Island Flap Versus Primary Closure in Tongue Squamous Cell Carcinoma', 'organization': {'class': 'OTHER', 'fullName': 'Cairo University'}, 'officialTitle': 'Oncological Outcome of Contralateral Submental Artery Island Flap Versus Primary Closure in Tongue Squamous Cell Carcinoma (Randomize Noninferiority Clinical Trial)', 'orgStudyIdInfo': {'id': '513'}}, 'armsInterventionsModule': {'armGroups': [{'type': 'EXPERIMENTAL', 'label': 'contralateral submental flap for tongue cancer defect', 'interventionNames': ['Procedure: contralateral submental flap for tongue cancer defect']}, {'type': 'ACTIVE_COMPARATOR', 'label': 'primary closure for tongue cancer defect', 'interventionNames': ['Procedure: primary closure for tongue cancer defect']}], 'interventions': [{'name': 'contralateral submental flap for tongue cancer defect', 'type': 'PROCEDURE', 'description': 'Tumor resection will be star first this accomplish with 1- 2 cm safety margin, Simultaneous neck dissection will be performed in all patient.\n\nFlap dissection begins from the opposite side of the pedicle in the subplatysmal plane.
