Abstract:
This is the first report of a bilateral mandibular angle functional reconstruction with a single fibula free vascularized flap. This case provides a new application of the fibula flap in mandibular reconstruction. Its particular vascularization allows not only osteotomies but also ostectomy of a middle shaft.
