Tissue-Engineered Oral Mucosa Grafts for Intraoral Lining Reconstruction of the Maxilla and Mandible With a Fibula Flap

摘要

Purpose: Many types of soft tissue grafts have been used for grafting or prelaminating bone flaps for intraoral lining reconstruction. The best results are achieved when prelaminating free flaps with mucosal grafts. We suggest a new approach to obtain keratinized mucosa over a fibula flap using full-thickness, engineered, autologous oral mucosa.
