Using a Second Free Fibula Osteocutaneous Flap after Repeated Mandibulectomy Is Associated with a Low Complication Rate and Acceptable Functional Outcomes
Sign Up to like & getrecommendations! Published in 2017 at "Plastic and Reconstructive Surgery"
DOI: 10.1097/prs.0000000000003523
Abstract: Background: A significant percentage of patients who undergo segmental mandibulectomy for head and neck cancer will develop a new or recurrent cancer or osteoradionecrosis, necessitating a second mandibulectomy and reconstruction. In this scenario, many surgeons… read more here.
