Abstract:
:The intramandibular sliding myoosseous graft provides a new technique for reestablishment of mandibular continuity. It is well suited for immediate or remote reconstruction of midline or unilateral defects. Close attention to constructing smooth, confluent bone margins reduces the probability of mucosal fenestration. We have found that rigid direct osseous fixation improves the rate and quality of osteosynthesis. The technique is a useful and simple addition to the reconstructive armamentarium.
