pubmed:abstractText
Extended mandibular defects resulting from cancer resection are amenable to reconstruction with a free vascularized bone graft transplantation. Between 1992 and 1995, 12 patients were enrolled in a protocol including a preoperative 3D-CT used to develop a custom-made acrylic model of the mandible. Besides contributing to the assessment of tumor extension, 3D-CT helps determine the adequate limits of mandibular resection. 3D-CT has the advantage of providing the surgeon with a more familiar image of the mandible and the mandibular model, allowing better and quicker conformation of the bone flap. The graft can be shaped at the donor site before cutting its vascular pedicle, resulting in a shorter period of ischemia. This series demonstrated that preoperative mandibular modeling with 3D-CT helps improve functional and cosmetic results in mandibular reconstruction.
