Reconstruction of a face destroyed by an explosion.
We have followed up the course of the facial reconstruction in a 12 year old boy with totally destroyed middle and lower third of the face when the fuse for initial mine activation exploded in his mouth. The boy has undergone more than 20 operations within the 7-year period and his rehabilitation has not been completed, yet.
