Area of Science:

  • Oncology
  • Oral and Maxillofacial Surgery
  • Reconstructive Surgery

Background:

  • Maxillary reconstruction has advanced significantly due to virtual surgery and dental rehabilitation focus.
  • Reconstructing the maxilla involves intricate bone and soft-tissue restoration for form and function.
  • Understanding defect anatomy and reconstruction principles is crucial for successful outcomes.

Purpose of the Study:

  • Provide a comprehensive overview of maxillary reconstruction principles.
  • Discuss oncological considerations for maxilla cancer resection.
  • Detail various reconstructive options, their strengths, and limitations.

Main Methods:

  • Review of current oncological principles for maxilla cancers.
  • Anatomical definition of maxillectomy defects and associated morbidity.
  • Analysis of goals, principles, and options for maxillary reconstruction.

Main Results:

  • Maxillary reconstruction demands precise defect definition and understanding of reconstructive principles.
  • Free bone flaps are increasingly used with sophisticated workflows.
  • Matching patient and oncologic context to the reconstruction is vital due to potential complications.

Conclusions:

  • Successful maxillary reconstruction hinges on detailed anatomical assessment and strategic planning.
  • A thorough understanding of reconstructive options, including their limitations, is essential.
  • The article provides a broad overview of core factors for effective maxillary reconstruction.
