Purpose: The purpose of this report was to assess a surgical technique-using an autogenous tricortical iliac crest bone graft in patients with epilepsy-for anatomical glenoid reconstruction for recurrent anterior glenohumeral instability with severe glenoid deficiency. Materials and Methods: We studied two cases of recurrent anterior dislocation of the shoulder due to epilepsy. These cases were treated with anatomical glenoid reconstruction using an autogenous tricortical iliac crest bone graft. Results: Both cases achieved bone union in 5 months. There was no recurrence of instability and pain. Both cases had normal range of motion. Conclusion: Anatomical glenoid reconstruction for recurrent anterior glenohumeral instability with severe glenoid deficiency using an autogenous tricortical iliac crest bone graft is a successful surgical technique for achieving shoulder stability.

Purpose: The purpose of this study was to evaluate the radiologic and clinical outcomes after intercalary tricortical iliac bone graft with plate fixation for the nonunion of midshaft clavicular fractures. Material and Methods: Between September 2007 and May 2011, 10 patients who were treated by the intercalary tricortical iliac bone graft, with plate fixation for clavicle nonunion, were studied. The mean follow-up period was 30.7 (12~57) months. After the sclerotic bone was excised to the bleeding cortical bone, we interposed the tricortical iliac bone to provide structural support and restore clavicle length, and then fixed the plate and screws. The radiologic outcomes on the serial plain radiographs and clinical outcomes, according to UCLA, ASES and Quick DASH scores, were analyzed. Results: Bony union was obtained in all cases (100%) and the average union time was 18.4 (14~24) weeks. The average respective UCLA and ASES scores improved from 16.7 and 52.1 preoperatively to 27.4 and 83.6 postoperatively (p<0.05). The average Quick DASH score was 40.5, at the final follow-up. Complications were 2 shoulder stiffness, and one case had removal of device and arthroscopic surgery at 11 months, postoperatively. There were no implant failure or infection. Conclusion: Intercalary tricortical iliac bone graft, with plate fixation for the nonunion of midshaft clavicular fractures, is a good option that can provide structural support and restore clavicle length, as well as high union rate.

Loss of mandibular continuity due to neoplasm, trauma, or infection results in major esthetic and biologic compromise. The use of costochondral grafts for reconstruction of temporomandibular joint, described first by Gillies in 1920, has been accepted as a suitable method for replacing the mandibular condyle, especially in growing children. Autogenous iliac bone graft has been a satisfactory source of mandibular reconstruction since Sykoffs report in 1900. Autogenous bone grafts from the posterior aspects of the ilium provide large amount of PMCB with acceptable donor site morbidity. In timing of reconstruction, initial disease, age, medical history, growth and development, esthetic and psychologic factors should be considered. We present a case of osteosarcoma in the mandible that was treated by a hemimandibulectomy and the defect was reconstructed 20 months later with composite method of costochondral and posterior iliac bone graft.

Soft tissue expansion is widely used technique in oral & maxillofacial reconstruction and provide new method of reconstruction in posttraumatic alopecia, post burn, wide scar, congenital deformity, benign tumor, tattoo, etc. Expanded tissue flaps have the advantage of increased vascularity, proximity to the defect, and similarity of color and texture. They also preclude the need to advance flaps from distant sites. Tissue expansion can be used to form a well vascularized cavity to accomodate and nourish bone grafts. The following report describes the uses of tissue expanders by allowing bone grafting to correct both soft and bony defects of mandibular region

The two recurrent ameloblastomas in mandibles of the 34 years old korean woman and 30 years old korean man were observed. We have treated the two recurrent ameloblastomas by means of hemimandiblectomies for radical operations and bone grafts having been obtained from each her and his iliac bone crests.
