ABSTRACT
OBJECTIVES:
To report on the use of lateral transport osteogenesis in cancer patients after maxillo/mandibular resections and on the implant survival rate in the generated bone MATERIAL ANDMETHODS:
Four patients treated using lateral transport osteogenesis entered this descriptive study and were retrospectively studied (mean age 55; range 41-62).RESULTS:
Reconstruction of segmentary defects after surgical and radiological cancer treatment on maxilla and mandible was achieved. No relevant intra- or post-operative complications occurred. No differences on implant survival were observed between patients who had received radiotherapy and those who had not.CONCLUSIONS:
This approach can be considered a recommendable reconstructive option after oral cancer treatment - including radiotherapy- particularly for high-surgical-risk, collaborative patients.
