[Hemimandibular reconstruction via an autologous transplant of vascularized fibula. A report of a clinical case]. / Ricostruzione di un emicorpo mandibolare mediante trapianto autologo di perone vascolarizzato. Presentazione di un caso clinico.

ABSTRACT

The authors illustrate the advantage of vascularised as opposed to conventional edges in the reconstruction of the jaw, focusing in particular on the use of a fibular autologous transplant. After a rapid description of the surgical technique used to remove the graft, they report a case of mandibular reconstruction in a young patient who had been involved in a shooting accident which had led to the loss of the left of this jaw.
