We present our clinical experience in cranioplasty with autograft as follows: conchal cartilage for losses up to 2 cm2, outer table grafts for defects up to 100 cm2, and, for larger defects still, split rib grafts, which ...

The purpose of this study was to develop an experimental model in rabbits that would permit us to analyze skull reconstruction and enable the study of bone autografts, osteofacial flaps, and other materials. We use the ...

Maxillomandibular reconstructions are traditionally performed by means of autogenous bone grafts collected from intraoral donor areas and extraoral donor areas such as clavicle, iliac bone, rib, and tibia. The calvarial ...

PURPOSE: To study the bone viability of a vascularized galea and periosteum flap filled with bone fragments, as a substitute of the bone graft in facial reconstructive surgery. METHODS: Forty rabbits were studied, and ...
