description Early identification of flap failure is an indispensable prerequisite for flap salvage. Although many methods of free flap monitoring are available, there is still no single reliable non-invasive technique for early recognition of flap failure and for differentiation between arterial occlusion and venous congestion. The aim of this study was to investigate the benefits of the tissue oxygen analysis system O2C for monitoring patients undergoing maxillofacial reconstruction with fasciocutaneous radial forearm flaps. In a prospective clinical study the microcirculatory parameters of blood flow, flow velocity, haemoglobin concentration (AU, Arbitrary Units) and oxygen saturation (%) were assessed by clinical means, by laser Doppler flowmetry and tissue spectrophotometry in 61 patients intraoperatively. Measurements were carried out before flap harvest, in the separated radial forearm flap, immediately after anastomoses and up to 14 days after reconstruction. Following anastomosis, blood flow and flow velocity exceeded the level before flap elevation and reached significant differences by the third postoperative day ( p
