title: [Complications of the surgical treatment of the severely resorbed edentulous maxilla].
abstract: Complications during reconstructive surgery for placement of endosseous implants in the severely resorbed maxilla are described, based on recent literature. Detailed long term follow-up studies on complications are lacking. Clinical experience has shown that this type of surgery is prone to complications. These complications must be taken into account when indicating and planning this type of surgery.
