A series of 21 patients, who were selected for primary mandibular stabilisation with titanium plates following excision of advanced malignant tumours, is reported. Success was defined as a plate that did not have to be removed due to fracture, exposure or infection. The overall success rate was 71%, with follow-up ranging from 7-53 months. The majority of plate losses were experienced when either anterior or large lateral defects which included the condyle were bridged and when patients were subjected to either pre- or postoperative radiotherapy.
本文报道了一组21例患者，这些患者在晚期恶性肿瘤切除术后采用钛板进行下颌骨一期固定。成功的定义为钛板未因骨折、外露或感染而必须取出。总体成功率为71%，随访时间为7至53个月。当桥接前部或包括髁突的大型外侧缺损时，以及患者接受术前或术后放疗时，钛板丢失的情况较为常见。
