Reconstructing the mandible presents significant challenges for head and neck surgeons. This review covers anatomy, surgical options like free flaps, and managing complications in reoperative mandibular surgery.

Area of Science:

  • Head and Neck Surgery
  • Reconstructive Surgery
  • Oral and Maxillofacial Surgery

Background:

  • Mandibular reconstruction is a complex surgical challenge.
  • Historically, pedicle flaps were primary reconstructive tools.
  • Reoperative surgery adds further complexity.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To review the anatomy of the perimandibular region.
  • To discuss current reconstructive options for the mandible.
  • To outline workup and complications of reoperative mandibular surgery.

Main Methods:

  • Literature review of anatomical and surgical studies.
  • Analysis of reconstructive techniques for the mandible.
  • Discussion of patient workup and complication management.
