Modification of the biphase appliance for large mandibular resections

Journal of Oral and Maxillofacial Surgery, 1985
Since the Joe Hall Morris external pin fixation device was first introduced, it has been used with much success in the treatment of mandibular trauma and the reconstruction of mandibular defects. Because it is well tolerated and provides such predictable stability, the device has been modified by several authors in very creative ways to manage unique ...

Endoscopic resection of a mandibular body and condylar osteoma

Minimally Invasive Therapy & Allied Technologies, 2008
Osteomas are slowly growing lesions that are amenable to surgical excision when they interfere with esthetics, function or cause symptoms due to compression of vital structures. Due to their location facial bone osteoma demand minimally invasive surgery to avoid iatrogenic injury, functional interference and scarring, hence the need to perform ...

Pediatric Fibromatosis Requiring Mandibular Resection and Reconstruction

AORN Journal, 1995
ABSTRACTFibromatosis is the nonmalignant proliferation of fibroblasts that aggressively invade adjacent tissues. The cause of this abundant growth is unknown. When fibromatosis develops in the mandible or adjoining tissues, its aggressive growth can compress the trachea and cause death. Resection is the treatment of choice. Mandibular reconstruction is

Morbidity and mortality of mandibular resection for malignant disease

The American Journal of Surgery, 1977
Twenty-nine per cent of patients undergoing mandibular resection had an entirely uncomplicated postoperative course. Local complications occurred in 54 per cent and systemic complication in 35 per cent. Increasing the extent of resection or an additional procedure, such as radical neck dissection, increased the local complication rate.

[Statistical study of mandibular resections].

Revue de stomatologie et de chirurgie maxillo-faciale, 1994
A retrospective study of mandibular resections performed from 1980 to 1984 was conducted to evaluate age, sex, aetiology, etc. The number of mandibular resections appears to have declined at the Institute of Stomatology and Maxillofacial Surgery of the Pitié-Salpêtrière Hospital.

The Journal of Prosthetic Dentistry, 1983
1 he most common problem in the rehabilitation of edentulous mandibular resection patients is the lack of stability for the mandibular denture. This problem is seen with the continuity defect but tends to be more evident with the discontinuity defect (Fig. 1).
