A conceptual framework for treating jaw deformities in patients …
2022年1月1日 · This article outlines a conceptual approach to the reconstruction of jaw deformities associated with abnormalities in the mandibular condyle. The authors describe a hierarchy of reconstruction, emphasizing use of the least invasive and progressing to the most complex and invasive techniques, depending on the nature and severity of the ...
The temporo-mandibular joint: Reconstruction of the condyle …
Ablative surgery of the mandibular condyle poses a unique reconstructive challenge for many reasons. The condyle and it's relationship to the TMJ is a unique, complex, functional and aesthetically relevant piece of human anatomy. Resection may be required for both malignant and benign pathologies; each posing a differing set of surgical variables.
Herein, we review methods of condylar reconstruction focusing on autologous and alloplastic materials, surgical techniques, and recent technological advances.
Autogenous grafts for condylar reconstruction in treatment of …
The only treatment option for TMJ ankylosis is surgical with or without condylar reconstruction. Various autogenous grafts are available for condylar reconstruction after freeing the ankylotic mass such as costochondral, sternoclavicular, fibular, coronoid, and metatarsophalangeal.
Advanced mandibular reconstruction with fibular free flap and ...
2023年7月3日 · We have approached the reconstruction of mandibular defects that include the condyle with simultaneous reconstruction with a vascularized free fibular flap (FFF) using Surgical Design and Simulation (SDS) and alloplastic TMJ prosthesis.
Total mandible and bilateral TMJ reconstruction ... - SpringerOpen
2023年1月23日 · In most cases, a free fibular flap (FFF) has been used to reconstruct the mandible, shaping the bone extremities for condylar replacement or using commercial TMJ prostheses.
Total mandible and bilateral TMJ reconstruction combining a …
Using virtual surgical planning (VSP) software, the authors, in collaboration with medical engineers, have created a custom-made original titanium porous mandibular implant, suspended from a bilateral artificial temporomandibular joint.
Reconstruction of the TMJ and condyle in inflammatory arthritis
The operative management of patients needing both TMJ reconstruction of condyle/ramus unit and correction of a co-existing dentofacial deformity requires the coordination of operative sterile and “dirty” fields.
Reconstruction of the mandibular condyle due to degenerative …
2023年3月16日 · Many options for reconstructing the mandibular condyle/glenoid fossa exist; these range from autogenous options including vascularized free tissue transfer as well as non-vascularized tissue transfer. Alloplastic (prosthetic) materials can also be utilized; these exist in both patient specific/custom made devices and stock prostheses.
Vascularized Fibula TMJ Reconstruction: A Report of Five Cases ...
2022年8月18日 · The use of computerized patient-specific surgical planning (CPSSP) technology can aid in the anatomic reconstruction of mandibular condyle defects with a vascularized free fibula flap without the need for additional adjuncts.
