Tumors in cheek and oral commissure are not uncommon and free flaps are more acceptable solutions for large defects after tumor excision. Flap inset as the last stage of surgery and reconstruction has its importance. Aesthetically, free flap inset usually is not what patient expects, due to large or bizarre shapes. Every deformity in this area is significant and unpleasant. There are numerous solutions to refinement in flap inset. Authors tried to present their modification named " Fortune Cookie" in this flaps as folding transferred flap and de-epithelialization of folded part and approximating raw surfaces together. By this way, the final flap has more smooth surface and the pedicle is preserved.
