“…Because it did not contain the superficial temporal vessels, adequate circulation of the distal temporalis muscle should be confirmed when the flap is elevated. If circulation of temporalis muscle is confirmed first, because the galeal flap itself has good capillary circulation, the viability of galeal flap connected with temporalis muscle can be secured [18,19]. Nonetheless, operators must confirm the circulation of the galeal flap in direct, so we confirmed adequate circulation with blood permeation by putting the galeal flap on wet gauze for 2 to 3 minutes.…”

Traditionally, a galeal flap has been used for skull base reconstruction. In addition to the galeal flap, several other flaps, such as the temporalis muscle flap or the free vascularized flap, can be options for skull base reconstruction, and each option has advantages and disadvantages. Certain cases, however, can be challengeable in the application of these flaps. We successfully managed to cover a skull base defect using an extended temporalis flap. Herein, we present the case and introduce this novel method.
