LATE RECONSTRUCTION OF PARTIALLY-RESECTED MANDIBLE AFTER REMOVAL OF AMELOBLASTOMA OF THE MANDIBLE

This is a report on a case of delayed reconstruction after partial mandibularectomy for Ameloblastoma involving symphysis and bodies of the mandible by using of two large pieces of corticocancellous bone blocks obtained from both iliac crests. The authors failed immediate reconstruction with two kinds of Alloplasts(metal, methylmethacrylate) at two times of trial due to known infection and suggestive poor histocompatibility of materials aginst the host who has been suffered from long-term and active pulmonary tuberculosis. However we could get success late reconstruction of this problem-occured and curved area with two pieces of large corticocancellous blocks by using of miniplate osteosynthesis and biphasic external pin fixation. From our experience we are obtained some results as follows : 1. Alloplastic graft materials seemed to be dangerous to maintain successfuly in patient who has a long-term debilitating disease as a active pulmonary tuberculosis. 2. Biphasic external skeletal pin fixation appliance gave many advantages such as maintain functional position of the remained bodies and condyles of the mandible after removal of failed alloplasts and during control of inflammation of this area, assist supportive roles to fix and maintain bone grafts during healing, allow mandibular movement during healing and so offer to conduct normal functional stimuli to bone grafts during osteogenesis etc. 3. Bony union was successful between not only normal bones and grafted bones but also grafted bone pieces even though we used two pieces of large blocks of corticocancellous bone for graft. 4. Miniplate osteosynthesis was not affect any adverse effects to bone grafts but offered good role of fixation and maintenance for bone grafts.
