Article Synopsis
- The study aimed to assess how effective and durable patient-specific implants (PSIs) with strut abutments are for fixing a specific type of jaw defect caused by bilateral maxillectomy.
- Through Finite Element Analysis, researchers evaluated the PSI's performance after a patient had a defect due to COVID-related mucormycosis.
- Results showed that while stress was highest in certain areas, overall measurements were within safe limits, leading to the conclusion that PSIs with strut abutments are a viable treatment option for these patients.
Aim: To highlight the incidence of osteomyelitis due to CAM and to elucidate the mode of spread of infection from maxilla to zygomatic bone, to highlight how that is distinct from other cases of zygomatic osteomyelitis due to other etiologies.
Methods: A standard protocol of treatment of the cases of CAM with zygomatic involvement based on our own outcomes was furnished. All 10 patients were treated with dual antifungal therapy and aggressive surgical resection via extraoral approach, in conjunction with functional endoscopic sinus surgery (FESS).
