Abstract
The gold standard for mandibular reconstruction is universally recognised and consists of the replacement of the bony part of the mandible with a bony microvascular free flap supported by a reconstructive plate. Although this procedure is feasible and reproducible in most patients, at times poor oncological prognosis or poor performance status force surgeons to consider other reconstructive solutions. In these cases, the main alternative in reconstructing a mandibular defect is represented by bridging plates combined with soft tissue flaps. However, repairing a mandibular defect with a reconstructive plate only can lead to a series of diverse complications. The most frequent complications reported are rupture and oral exposure of the plate. In this paper, we describe a new method for mandibular reconstruction using a customised bridging mandibular prosthesis (CBMP) without bone free flap.
