pubmed:abstractText
The evolution of mandibular reconstruction following composite resection is advanced by improved alloplastic prosthesis and reliable microvascular free tissue transfers. A 42-case, 6-year experience is presented using both methods at the University of California, San Francisco. The advantages and complications of both are discussed. The authors conclude that the success rate for lateral defect restoration is equivalent with either technique, and that the anterior defects are more reliably reconstructed with free tissue transfer. The advantage of microvascular flaps in the anterior defect must be gauged against the physical status of the patient, disease extent, and likelihood of dental rehabilitation by interosseous fixation.
