[Treatment of losses of bone substance of the frontal region with outer table autogenic graft].
Ten patients with losses of frontal bone were operated with the use of bone grafts taken from the parietal area without craniotomy. In all patients the contour was restored without complications at the donor area. Results were evaluated clinically and radiologically one year later and no absorption was observed. We conclude that bone grafts from outer layer of parietal bone offer a satisfactory esthetic results. The morbidity at the donor area was not significant.
