Reconstruction of oral mucosal defects with regenerative dermal matrix after T1-T2 squamocellular carcinoma resection. JOURNAL OF STOMATOLOGY, ORAL AND MAXILLOFACIAL SURGERY 2024:101911. [PMID: 38719193 DOI: 10.1016/j.jormas.2024.101911] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 04/02/2024] [Revised: 04/05/2024] [Accepted: 05/06/2024] [Indexed: 05/12/2024]
Abstract
OBJECTIVE Resection of tumors of oral cavity usually causes short- or long-term sequelae such as chewing, speech and swallowing impairment. To preserve this function it is necessary to maintain the lining of the oral cavity, the mobility and sensitivity of the tongue. Reconstructive options for oral mucosal defects resulting from tumor resection included primary closure, mucosal and skin grafts, pedicle and microvascular free flaps, and dermal matrix. STUDY DESIGN Retrospective study on patients undergoing reconstruction of intraoral defects, after removal of T1, T2 malignant tumors, by placement of bilayer dermal matrix. METHODS From 2021 to 2022, 47 patients with oral mucosa defects after removal of squamous cell carcinoma were treated. All patients were affected by a T1-T2 squamous cell carcinoma. For each patient, data were collected regarding the site of the disease, the initial staging, the size of the surgical defect, the complications and the outcome months after the operation. RESULTS In all treated cases the surgical defect involved the mucosa of the cheek, the oral floor or the tongue with an average size of 5.45cm2. Patients who underwent this type of reconstruction benefited from excellent healing of intraoral wounds and good restoration of oral function 6 months after surgery. Out of the total number of patients, membrane attachment failure was reported in only two cases. CONCLUSION As emerges from the data reported in our study, the dermal matrix represents a valid alternative in oncological reconstructive surgery for small/medium-sized intraoral mucosal defects because it allows re-epithelialization of the wound.

Otolaryngol Head Neck Surg 2024; 170:373-379. [PMID: 37717219 DOI: 10.1002/ohn.531] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 05/05/2023] [Revised: 07/06/2023] [Accepted: 08/12/2023] [Indexed: 09/19/2023]
Abstract
OBJECTIVE To evaluate the feasibility, safety, and failure rate of Integra® Bilayer Wound Matrix (Integra) in the reconstruction of oral cavity defects. STUDY DESIGN Retrospective cohort study. SETTING All study information was collected from a single academic tertiary care hospital. METHODS Subjects included adult patients who underwent oral cavity resection and immediate subsequent reconstruction with Integra® Bilayer Wound Matrix at MD Anderson Cancer Center between the years 2015 and 2020. The following variables were collected: patient's demographics, comorbidities, disease stage, treatment and reconstruction modalities, and surgical outcome from the medical records. Statistical analysis included distribution analysis for all collected parameters and Pearson's χ2 tests to find correlation between variables and take rate of Integra. RESULTS Eighty-three patients underwent reconstruction with Integra® Bilayer Wound Matrix dressing. Average age was 66 years old. Thirty-nine patients (47%) had history of previous resections for oral cavity tumors. Fourteen patients (17%) had history of radiation therapy to the Head and Neck region. Most common pathology was invasive squamous cell carcinoma (75%) followed by dysplasia (12%). Complete wound healing with good cellular integration occurred in 83 patients (96%) with only 3 failures requiring additional surgery. Reconstruction of mandibulectomy defects was associated with increased risk of dehiscence and bone exposure (0.66, P = .03). CONCLUSION This study shows promising results with high take rate of Integra® Bilayer Wound Matrix dressing in the reconstruction of various oral cavity defects. We encourage surgeons to adopt this technique as a viable and versatile option into the reconstruction ladder of oral cavity defects.

Recent trends and perspectives in reconstruction and regeneration of intra/extra-oral wounds using tissue-engineered oral mucosa equivalents. JAPANESE DENTAL SCIENCE REVIEW 2023; 59:365-374. [PMID: 37954029 PMCID: PMC10632115 DOI: 10.1016/j.jdsr.2023.10.002] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 07/25/2023] [Revised: 09/25/2023] [Accepted: 10/19/2023] [Indexed: 11/14/2023] Open
Abstract
Many conditions, including cancer, trauma, and congenital anomalies, can damage the oral mucosa. Multiple cultures of oral mucosal cells have been used for biocompatibility tests and oral biology studies. In recent decades, the clinical translation of tissue-engineered products has progressed significantly in developing tangible therapies and inspiring advancements in medical science. However, the reconstruction of an intraoral mucosa defect remains a significant challenge. Despite the drawbacks of donor-site morbidity and limited tissue supply, the use of autologous oral mucosa remains the gold standard for oral mucosa reconstruction and repair. Tissue engineering offers a promising solution for repairing and reconstructing oral mucosa tissues. Cell- and scaffold-based tissue engineering approaches have been employed to treat various soft tissue defects, suggesting the potential clinical use of tissue-engineered oral mucosa (TEOMs). In this review, we first cover the recent trends in the reconstruction and regeneration of extra-/intra-oral wounds using TEOMs. Next, we describe the current status and challenges of TEOMs. Finally, future strategic approaches and potential technologies to support the advancement of TEOMs for clinical use are discussed.

Abstract
Acellular dermal matrices (ADMs) have been studied extensively in the literature and have gained popularity for various reconstructive and aesthetic purposes. ADMs are composed of a basement membrane and acellular dermal layer of collagen and provide a platform for mucosal epithelization and neovascularization. Combining dermal collagen and essential growth factors allows ADMs to support adequate wound healing and bolster soft-tissue repairs. These dermal matrices can be derived from human cadaveric donor skin (allogenic) or mammalian donor sources (xenogeneic). These dermal substitutes provide the benefit of reducing or eliminating the need for autologous tissue grafts and subsequently minimize donor site morbidity. Many ADMs are currently available in the market, each with variations in processing, manufacturing, storage, preparation, and use. The literature validating ADMs in the head and neck for both cosmetic and reconstructive purposes is evolving rapidly. This review aims to provide an up-to-date and comprehensive overview of the principles of acellular dermal matrices (ADMs), the different types of ADMs, and evaluate common indications, techniques, and outcomes pertaining to select anatomic sites in the head and neck reconstruction.

Abstract
Utilization of biologic skin substitutes for the management of soft tissue defects as an alternative to autologous skin grafts has expanded over the past 2 decades. The purpose of this case series study was to report our experience with Integra® bilayer wound matrix for reconstruction of intraoral oncologic defects. Case records of 6 patients with intraoral oncologic defects reconstructed with Integra® bilayer wound matrix were retrospectively reviewed. The surgical defect location, size, and time to removal of surgical splint varied. Clinically, normal oral epithelialization was noted for all patients. One patient demonstrated a small area of dehiscence and bone exposure after adjuvant radiation therapy which resolved with minimal intervention. Integra bilayer wound matrix is a viable and versatile option for reconstruction of intraoral oncologic surgical defects. Further exploration of wound healing with Integra® matrix, surgical techniques, and cost-effectiveness is advocated.

Abstract
Treatment of traumatic ear injuries have always been a challenge. Preservation of the auricular cartilage is key for reconstruction. Many techniques have been reported for the management of exposed ear perichondrium. We present patient who sustained right ear soft tissue avulsion. Initial examination the patient revealed skin avulsion with exposed cartilage from the concha, scapha and antihelix on the right ear. The treatment sequence included debridement and application of Integra graft. This was followed by dressing changes every three days and three weeks. Once adequate vascularization was noted a split thickness skin graft was used for final reconstruction. Integra has been widely used for the management of burns as well as exposed bone and cartilage. However, its use in traumatic ear injuries has not been reported. This technique allowed for the reconstruction of a large skin avulsion from the right ear with minimal donor site morbidity and avoidance of local rotational flaps that could hinder later reconstructions if needed.
