At face level, tissue transplantation is one of the main methods in reconstructive surgery, generally used when local and locoregional reserves are outworked. To reconstruct different face units after trauma or oncologic resection we use different methods, according to dimensions, nature and site of the defect. In cases with extensive defects or mutilating sequelas, face transplantation can be a reconstructive option that should be taken in account, despite its desavantages.In this paper we present a retrospective study of the cases we operated during 2004-2010, in our Plastic and Reconstructive Surgery Clinic of Clinical Emergency Hospital "Bagdasar-Arseni" which needed reconstructions with different tissue transplantation methods.Case evaluation showed that postoperative results were good and very good. For this evaluation, we took in account both case gravity and operative risks, for each reconstructive method.Tissue transplantation for face reconstruction represents the latest milestone in face reconstruction, as well as a preliminary stage for face transplantation, when there is right indication. |
