Local flaps, such as the bilobed flap, offer excellent versatility, negligible morbidity, and minimal hospitalization. However, there is sparse data regarding the bilobed flap for large defects of the head and neck.<\/jats:p><\/jats:sec><jats:sec><jats:title>Methods<\/jats:title><jats:p>A retrospective case series identified patients undergoing head and neck reconstruction with a large bilobed flap for defect sizes \u2265\u20095\u2009x\u20095\u2009cm.
