Abstract
Romberg disease is a progressive hemifacial atrophy of unknown etiology. Several methods have been described for its reconstruction. Microsurgical reconstruction, focusing on the correction of facial asymmetry and restoration of contour, has become the standard. We have succeeded a reconstructive technique for Romberg disease using by omental flap. All patients achieved good healing of the transferred omentum without recurrences and complications with a good cosmetic result on long-term follow-up. Donor-site morbidity resulting from omental free flap harvest was minimal. Based on the results of our patients in this series, the surgical results were favorable. This report describes the successful treatment of 8 patients using this approach.
