Versatility in Mandibular Reconstruction after Ablative Tumor Surgery, Single Center Experience
Journal Title: Archives of Otolaryngology and Rhinology - Year 2016, Vol 2, Issue 1
Abstract
Mandibular reconstruction using vascularized osteocutaneous flaps is necessary to improve functional outcomes, such as jaw movement and mastication, and aesthetics after the wide resection of the mandible [1]. Bone grafts had been widely used for reconstruction, with the advent of microsurgery, such as rib [2], metatarsal [3], radial [4], scapular [5], iliac [6], and fibular [7,8].
