ABSTRACT
Objective:
To summarize the experience of reconstruction of mandibular defects with vascularized fibular osteocutaneous flap.Methods:
Segmental mandibular resection and immediate reconstruction with vascularized fibular osteocutaneous flap were performed in 8 patients with tumor.The fibula flaps were cut into 2-4 segments and bent to the contour of the mandibles,and they were fixed precisely by the titanium plate.The skin flaps were used for reconstruction of soft tissue defects or as observation windows of the blood circulation.Results:
In all 8 patients,transplanted vascularized fibular osteocutaneous flaps survived well,and restoration of mandibular contour and function was satisfactory.Conclusion:
The fibular osteocutaneous flap can be cut into segments and shaped according to location and contour of mandibular defect.Vascularized fibular osteocutaneous flap may be an ideal selection for the reconstruction of mandibular defect.
