Free flap has become crucial for reconstruction in head and neck oncology post resection since the time of its advent. It has shown a high success rate and provides a better quality of life over loco regional flaps. Literature has shown the success of free flaps does get influenced by preexisting medical conditions of the patient. Nephrotic syndrome being a hypercoagulable state doesn't find much mention in literature and its effect on free flaps has been less studied.
