Trans Oral Robotic Surgery (TORS) is a prominent surgical approach for the resection of oropharyngeal tumors without division of the lip and mandible. Some defects following TORS are large and complex enough to benefit soft-tissue coverage. The pedicled temporalis muscle flap is a versatile and reliable flap and may be a valid option to reconstruct defects of the lateral pharyngeal wall and partial soft palate.
