“…[60][61][62][63][64] The advantages and disadvantages associated with the conventional modalities are available widely in the literature, so the comparison has not considered. [60][61][62][63][64] Within the limitations of the study with few number of patients, with support of existing literature 12-17,29 -32,49-53 we conclude that the BBHA reconstruction can be a promising modality of treatment irrespective of size of the defect.…”

“…Avascular graft although a second choice to vascularized grafts which is a favorable option for mandible defects of 6 to 10 cm under optimum conditions, especially in developing countries where financial and/or surgical resources are limited. 64 The health insurance for reimbursement is also one of the factors for choice of treatment. 67 In such a global scenario, the BBHA is a ray of hope because of cost effectiveness, skill, time required for surgery, and the stay is very less compared with conventional modalities and least morbidity for the patient.…”

Structural and esthetic reconstruction using BBHA significantly reduces donor site morbidity. BBHA have satisfactory results in relation to esthetics and are useful material for reconstruction. Clinical application of this technique will minimize an additional surgical procedure required to harvest donor bone. BBHA provides good esthetics and structural balance to face. As this is an ongoing study the outcome is expected to improve. The incorporation of implants in the BBHA block may fulfill the function also in near future.

“…Previously, free bone grafting was the most common method for rebuilding the mandible (Devireddy et al, 2015). Today rehabilitation of patients with mandibular defects can be achieved using vascularized bone flaps or bone substitutes (Disa & Cordeiro, 2000;Bak et al, 2010;Gibber et al, 2015).…”

Large tumours of the mandible need immediate reconstruction to provide continuity of the mandible, satisfactory function of the jaw, as well as an acceptable aesthetic outcome. In this prospective study we described the immediate reconstruction of the mandible using computer aided design and 15 rapid prototyped patient specific implants (PSI) in 14 patients suffering from benign or malignant tumours demanding continuity resection of the mandible. The scaffold PSI was filled with β-tricalcium phosphate granules and autologous bone. Microvascular reconstruction was additionally needed in 12/15 cases. The clinical follow up was on average 33 months and the radiological follow up was on average 21 months. In nine cases the healing was uneventful. One patient lost the microvascular flap during the first postoperative week and one patient needed a revision due to perforation of the mucosa at the site of the PSI. Four patients had a major complication due to perforation of the mucosa leading to infection, which resulted in the total or partial removal of the PSI. The PSI seems to be a promising solution for treatment of patients demanding large reconstruction after mandible resection. The benefits are decreased rate of donor site complications and more accurate and prompt surgical procedure.
