A Novel Method of Mild to Moderate Parry-Romberg Syndrome Reconstruction: Computer-Assisted Surgery With Mandibular Outer Cortex and Fat Grafting.

Background: In patients with mild to moderate Parry-Romberg syndrome (PRS), plastic surgeons have mainly focused on the restoration of soft tissue deficiencies. While, bone deficits are easily overlooked. This study developed a new method combines the autologous mandibular outer cortex (MOC) grafting with fat grafting in mild to moderate patients with PRS, and apply computer-assisted techniques to improve the surgical outcomes and accuracy.

Surgical Template to Minimize the Damage of Tooth Buds in Young Children With Mandibular Distraction Osteogenesis.

Background: Mandibular distraction osteogenesis has become one of the most powerful reconstructive techniques for the treatment of mandibular deformities in young children. Damage to the tooth buds is often cited as a complication of it. The purpose of this study was to precisely design the osteotomy line and avoid the damage of tooth buds at the mandibular angle area with the help of surgical template.
