We present a case of a 32-year-old male with left-sided Goldenhar Syndrome and delta phalanx of the thumb, who was offered free tissue transfer from the forearm to address an intra-oral soft tissue deficiency. Despite the presence of appropriately developed right radial artery, used in previous facial reconstruction, the left radial artery occurred to be hypoplastic. He ultimately underwent free flap transfer based on the anomalous persistent left median artery. We suggest that in face of an unusual hand anatomy, flexible flap creation techniques that allow a lifeboat strategy of adjusting flap design should be considered preoperatively. Level of evidence: Level V, therapeutic study.
