[Microsurgical reconstruction of the mandible using a vascularized iliac bone graft].
A defect in the mandible, which also included the mandibular process, was successfully repaired with a free vascularized iliac bone graft. The development of the procedure and the operative technique are discussed. Advantages and disadvantages are compared and reviewed on the basis of a pertinent case. Together with others reporting in the international literature the authors believe that this method is useful in the management of extensive defects, in which conventional bone grafting usually fails.
