Abstract: Since its inception, microvascular free tissue transfer has broadened possibilities for oncologic ablation and restoration of form and function. Developments throughout recent decades have resulted in increasing flap success rates and complexity. Advances in technology and knowledge gained from past experiences will continue to improve surgical efficiency, flap success rates, and ultimately, patient outcomes.<br />Competing Interests: Disclosures The authors have no disclosures to report.<br /> (Copyright © 2024 Elsevier Inc.
