Popis:	Functional and cosmetic defects in the maxillofacial region may result from trauma, inflammatory disease, benign or malignant tumors. There are several well established reconstructive options for restoring mandibular continuity and function. Traditionally, surgeons have used their past experience to determine the best way to perform the osteotomy, graft harvesting, and graft shaping procedures for mandibular reconstruction. Focus has now shifted to optimize functional and aesthetic outcomes in mandible reconstruction. Refinements in surgical techniques continue to improve patient’s quality of life. The purpose of this study was to evaluate the outcome of a range of reconstructive techniques in 20 patients who underwent segmental resection of mandible during the period 2004-2017.
