Among the 1007 cases, 146 had a history of prior radiotherapy (radiation group), and the other 896 without prior radiotherapy (non-radiation group). The two groups were compared in terms of free flap success rate and postoperative complication rate.</p><p><b>RESULTS</b>The success rate of free flap was 97.6% in the radiation group, and 98.4% in the non-radiation group. The postoperative complication rate was 38.4% in the radiation group, and 36.4% in the non-radiation group.</p><p><b>CONCLUSIONS</b>Prior radiotherapy poses no significant influence on free tissue transfer in head and neck region.</p>
