| Abstract | Introduction: This systematic review was performed to address the focus question " what is the various success rates and complications of both vascularised and non vascularised bone grafts for immediate segmental mandibular reconstruction" in addition, this paper reviews various forms, recent advances and possible complications of autogenously vascularised and non vascularised bone grafts for mandibular reconstruction that were previously discussed in the literature. Methodology: A thorough Medline database search performed on related terms yielded 389 titles. 202 studies were excluded after title screening. Out of 187 abstracts selected, 180 full text articles were obtained for further evaluation. Results showed that a total of 51 studies followed the inclusion criteria included in this systematic review. A primary analysis of the included studies showed that the majority were case series studies (37 articles) and only 5 Randomized controlled trials and 12 case reports were identified with most not providing objective outcomes of their results. Therefore quantitative data analysis and subsequent meta-analysis could not be performed. Results showed variable success rates and complications of different immediate autogenously graft forms. Conclusion: both vascularised & non vascularised bone grafts could be used with different range of satisfactory results depending on many factors such as the size and site of the defect, patient age, histopathology of the lesion, fixation methods and radiotherapy. |
