[System of alloplastic bridging of mandibular defects]. 1977

J Reuther, and J E Hausamen

Primary reconstruction of the mandible after extensive tumor resection is necessary when the median part is lost; in lateral defects of the mandible, however, it is not always indicated. Our own functionally stable plate system with the instruments used for mandibular reconstruction is described. Clinical cases are presented in which this system was applied in combination with silastic interposed as a temporary replacement of the mandible.

D012826 Silicone Elastomers Polymers of silicone that are formed by crosslinking and treatment with amorphous silica to increase strength. They have properties similar to vulcanized natural rubber, in that they stretch under tension, retract rapidly, and fully recover to their original dimensions upon release. They are used in the encapsulation of surgical membranes and implants.
