Article Synopsis
- Mandibular segment loss due to tumors or infections can lead to issues with chewing, swallowing, speech, and facial appearance, necessitating reconstructive surgery.
- A study involving reconstructive surgery on 6 patients (averaging a follow-up of 11.6 years) utilized low-cost fibula and scapula free flaps for mandibular reconstruction.
- Results showed all patients had successful reconstructive outcomes, with restored dental function and aesthetics, no tumor recurrences, and improved facial symmetry through long-term bone remodeling.
