title: [Costal vascularization and pediculated costal grafts in mandibular reconstruction with intercostofacial microanastomosis].
abstract: As an applied study of the human costal vascularisation, the authors describe the technique of costal graft in the reconstruction of the mandible with intercosto-facial micro-anastomosis. The accent is placed upon the value of these grafts. They describe the methods for determination of the survival of the vascularised bone (X-ray, technetium pyrophosphate and labelled red cell bone scan, hyperselective arteriography and bone biopsy).
