Abstract:
Anterior iliac crest donor site morbidity was analysed retrospectively at 154 sites in 137 patients who had undergone secondary bone grafting of the cleft alveolus. The applied surgical anatomy and operative technique utilizing a medially based osteoplastic flap are described. The results show a low incidence of donor site morbidity.
