Advances in midface reconstruction: beyond the reconstructive ladder.

Purpose of review: This article reviews the anatomy and function of the midface, defect classifications and the breadth of common and novel reconstructive techniques including medical modeling, dental splints, and dental rehabilitation. Recent findings: Historically many classification systems for midface and maxillary defects exist but most defects are unique and an individualized approach is required. There has been an increased interest in using regional pedicled flaps with bone for reconstruction. Free flap reconstruction with the osteocutaneous radial forearm and fibula flap have been recently modified to increase the success of osseointegrated implants. Scapular free flap reconstruction has become increasingly popular because of the versatility, good bony contour match, and long pedicle length with the scapular tip flap. Dental splints are more cost effective than medical modeling and cutting guides but both techniques are complimentary in complex reconstruction. Summary: Midface reconstruction is a unique and challenging surgery demonstrated by the numerous classification systems and techniques available to reconstruct. Recent developments have further augmented these challenging reconstructions. Copyright (C) 2017 Wolters Kluwer Health, Inc. All rights reserved.
