| Introduction Reconstruction of mandibular defects is a challenging aspect for maxillofacial surgeons , alloplastic material,bone graft and free vascularized flaps can be used to manage this aspect however these procedures are associated with multiple complications Aim of the study The aim of this study is to evaluate transport distraction osteogenesis for reconstruction of mandibular defects as more conservative methods Subjects and methods patients presented with mandibular tumors were managed by surgical excision and subsequent reconstruction using transport distractors and followed postoperatively till full consolidation of the distracted segment occurred Results Number of the patients was nine patients , 5 females and 4 males,the mean age was 28.7year with standard deviation while the mean size of the surgical defects was 8cm And std ±0.86603 , the mean period of activation was 12 week with std ±1.25167 while the mean of consolidation period 3.2 months with std ±0.44096, , good reconstruction of the mandible was obtained Conclusion transport distraction osteogenesis is an effective valuable procedure for reconstruction of mandibular defects without donor site morbidity | ||
