    <abstract locale="en_US">Head and neck oncologic resections leave complex defects which are challenging to reconstruct.&#xA0;
In head and neck region, aesthetic facial units should be considered and a thin, malleable, suitable&#xA0;
texture and color flap should be applied. Supraclavicular artery Island flap is fasciocutaneous flap,&#xA0;
that taken from skin on the shoulder and supraclavicular area that based on supra clavicular artery.&#xA0;
One of the advantages of the supraclavicular artery Island flap is the possibility of one-stage&#xA0;
reconstruction with minimal morbidity. The objective of our study were to describe our initial&#xA0;
experience using the supra clavicular artery Island flap in conjunction with karapandzic flap for&#xA0;
reconstruction of lower facial defects.&#xA0;
Keywords: Supraclavicular flap; Karapandzic flap; Facial defect; Island flap; Supraclavicular
artery.</abstract>
