Ocular symptomatology in lesions of the facial nerve is associated with disturbed innervation of the circular muscle of the eye that leads to disruption of the protective function of the eyelids and the development of exposure symptoms, and is accompanied by a breach in corneal tear film integrity. The main clinical manifestation of the trigeminal nerve damage is the loss of sensory innervation of the cornea and disruption of the supply of neurotransmitters to its cells, manifesting as corneal hypo- or anesthesia. This triggers a cascade of pathological processes that lead to the development of neurotrophic keratopathy.

The purpose of this retrospective study was to assess the feasibility of using a free fibula flap (FFF) for reconstruction of the alveolar region of the severely atrophic mandible, by determining bone stability after dental implant insertion and prosthetic rehabilitation in a series of eight female patients aged 36-65 years. Dental implant insertion was performed 3-4 months after reconstruction. Prosthetic loading was performed 3-4 months after implant insertion.

The extent of manifestation of the osteonecrotic process after radiation therapy of malignant neoplasms of the head and neck is currently unknown and little studied. The same can be said about the choice of methods and surgical techniques in this category of patients. We believe that the choice of method is based on the determination of the true size of the defect, the search for the optimal source of complete blood supply as well as the presence of restrictions on the general somatic status.

The purpose of the study was to increase the effectiveness of surgical treatment and rehabilitation of patients with severe mandibular atrophy by means of autogenous free vascularized fibula transplant use with subsequent dental implants placement in the reconstructed mandible and implant-retained fixed dentures. In 2017 5 female patients underwent surgical treatment of severe mandibular atrophy with autogenous free vascularized fibula transplant in Maxillofacial Surgery department of CRID with additional nonvascularized iliac bone grafts and functional rehabilitation with implant-supported constructions in two of the cases. Due to its form, length and vascularization fibular bone represents a good plastic material for full length mandibular alveolar part reconstruction.
