ABSTRACT
OBJECTIVES:
Osteoradionecrosis of the mandible is a late radiation-induced complication, which is a major concern in survivors of head and neck cancer. STUDYDESIGN:
In this study, we present a case of a patient with nasopharyngeal carcinoma who developed extensive bilateral osteoradionecrosis of the ascending ramus of the mandible. After preoperative virtual surgical planning, the obtained data were used to fabricate patient-specific cutting templates. The bilateral mandibular defects were reconstructed using 2 separate flaps prepared from a single fibula.RESULTS:
Both defects were successfully reconstructed, and satisfactory aesthetic and functional results were achieved.CONCLUSIONS:
Bilateral mandibular osteoradionecrosis can be managed with virtual surgical planning, and the defects can be reconstructed using 2 separate flaps prepared from a single fibula.
