Mandibular reconstruction.

M Cohen, R C Schultz

    Clinics in Plastic Surgery

    Summary
    This summary is machine-generated.

    Immediate mandibular reconstruction using free bone grafts is recommended for defects without significant soft tissue loss. Postoperative radiation necessitates deferring bone grafting until after radiotherapy is completed.

    Area of Science:

    • Oral and Maxillofacial Surgery
    • Plastic and Reconstructive Surgery

    Background:

    • Mandibular defects require careful reconstruction strategies.
    • Reconstruction choices depend on defect size, soft tissue involvement, and radiation plans.

    Purpose of the Study:

    • To outline optimal timing and methods for mandibular reconstruction.
    • To address reconstruction challenges in cases with and without anticipated radiotherapy.

    Main Methods:

    • Review of surgical techniques for mandibular reconstruction.
    • Consideration of free bone grafts, composite grafts, and alloplastic materials.
    • Emphasis on soft tissue management and graft viability.

    Main Results:

    • Immediate free bone grafting is preferred for small defects without significant soft tissue loss.

  • Soft tissue reconstruction is crucial for extensive defects to prevent complications.
  • Osseous reconstruction should be delayed if postoperative radiation is planned.

    • Conclusions:

    • Immediate reconstruction with vascularized bone grafts is suitable when radiotherapy is not anticipated.
    • Delayed reconstruction is necessary following radiotherapy.
    • Arch defects require specific attention to stabilization and reconstruction timing.
