Abstract
BACKGROUND: To describe a clinical case of a cancer patient who underwent ablative tumor surgery, including treatment planning, surgical resection and subsequent implant rehabilitation. CASE REPORT: A 61-year-old patient with a diagnosis of multicystic follicular ameloblastoma in the maxilla, in which it was necessary a multidisciplinary approach and two surgical steps. In the first surgical intervention osseointegrated implants (OII) were placed in the fibula, until their osseointegration period of 8 weeks was complete. Afterwards, in the second surgery, the micro-vascularized free fibular flap bearing the implants was transplanted into the oral cavity, in order to perform simultaneous reconstruction and early rehabilitation. The final prosthetic rehabilitation consisted in a hybrid prosthesis fabricated using CAD CAM technology. RESULTS: The latest advances in medical research have improved our understanding of the oral cavity's regenerative capacity after oncological treatment. This, aided by the advances in digital 3D technologies, has allowed meticulous treatment planning prior surgery. CONCLUSIONS: The functional and esthetic reconstructions described in these two case reports were made possible by coordinating multidisciplinary approaches involving dentists and oral and maxillofacial surgeons. Advances in medicine have improved understanding of the regenerative capacity of the oral region following oncologic treatment, facilitating meticulous advance planning, while advances in digital 3D technologies for planning make it possible to reduce the number of surgical sessions and the time taken for the patient to recover both the esthetics and function of the stomatognathic system. Key words:Oral rehabilitation, oral cancer, oral surgery. Copyright:
