An alternative method of midface reconstruction: the use of customised PEEK implant and a laminate free soft tissue transfer

Introduction: Midface reconstruction remains a challenging area for most craniofacial surgeons. Free tissue transfer has been suggested as the method of choice for these complex three-dimensional maxillary reconstructions. These prolonged procedures carry significant risks and may not be the ideal treatment for all patients. Good functional and symmetric reconstructions of maxillary defect play significant part in preserving patients' quality of life. We present a case that incorporated the use of a patient-specific PEEK (polyether ether ketone) implant as an alternative to composite free tissue transfer to reconstruct an extensive maxillary defect.
