Iliac crest free flap in oromandibular reconstruction : 13 cases study / A. Baj, S. Ferrari, B. Bianchi, F. Laganà, G. Bellocchio, E. Sesenna. - In: ACTA OTORHINOLARYNGOLOGICA ITALICA. - ISSN 0392-100X. - 23:2(2003 Apr), pp. 102-110.
Abstract:
Oromandibular reconstruction following oncological resection
is particularly challenging. In this past decade, great
improvements have been made, in functional and aesthetic
terms, following the introduction of composite free flaps.
By means of this reconstructive technique, it is, in fact,
possible to restore mandibular continuity, and, consequently,
the morphology of the lower third of the face; rehabilitate
mastication through osteointegrated implants, and
optimise the reconstruction of soft tissue, employing the
fascio-cutaneous or muscular portion of these flaps.
Between January 1995 and January 2001, 70 oromandibular
reconstructions employing osseous free flaps were
performed in the Department of Maxillo-Facial Surgery of
the Ospedale Maggiore in Parma, and in 13 of these the
iliac crest free flap was used. Personal experience is
described regarding the indications and use of this flap.
