“…Twenty four patients (15 males and 9 females) were included in this review (Table 1 ). [ 3 , 5 12 ] The youngest was 6 years’ old, and the oldest was 51 years’ old, and their mean age and standard deviation was 21.6 ± 12.9 years. [ 3 , 5 12 ] The most common disease associated with surgical procedures was ameloblastoma (12 patients).…”

“…Spontaneous bony regeneration of a segmental mandibular defect is rare phenomenon, and its mechanism is not clearly understood. [ 3 ] In particular, the case of spontaneous regeneration of the mandible following hemimandibulectomy is very rare. [ 4 ]…”

“…It is an interesting finding to report since only a few reports exist on the spontaneous regeneration of bone after surgical resection of jaw lesions [18, 19]. It is found that such regeneration can significantly reduce or eliminate the need for reconstruction.…”

“…This kind of regeneration is explained due to the presence of intact periosteum and its osteogenic potential in children. When the periosteum is preserved during surgical resection the new bone is generated that can fill the residual defect [18, 19]. The patient will continually be followed up for completion of regeneration of the defect and will be considered for further functional growth modification if any residual growth deformity exists.…”

“…The absolute indication for t he surgica l treatment of TMJ fractures are: (1) displacement to the cranial fossa; (2) inability to obtain proper occlusion w it h closed reduct ion; (3) latera l extracapsular displacement of the fragment, and (4) invasion of foreign body in the joint [22]. In relation to the surgical access, the retromandibular transparotid approach has significant advantages for accessing the subcondylar region and the high ramus fractures.…”
