Abstract
Background
Ameloblastoma is a benign yet locally aggressive odontogenic tumor of the jaw with high recurrence rates. Despite many studies, the search is still on for the treatment approach which can render the acceptable recurrence rates with good functional and esthetic results.
Methods
In this prospective study, we operated on 37 patients of mandibular ameloblastoma between 2009 and 2018. Two patients were treated with curettage and chemical sterilization of the cavity. Resection of a tumor with a 2-cm margin was performed in the rest of 35 patients. The mandibular defect was primarily reconstructed with the microvascular free fibular flap in 29 patients.
Results
The follow-up ranged from 6 months to 7.7 years with a mean of 5.1 years. A tumor recurred within a year in all two patients (100%) treated with curettage. Out of 35 radical excisions, only one patient (2.85%) developed recurrence 3 years after the disease-free interval. Good mouth opening, intelligible speech, satisfactory lower jaw shape, and facial profiles were achieved in all 29 patients who were treated with primary free fibular flap.
Conclusion
We prefer wide excision with 2-cm margins on each side of a tumor with the primary reconstruction of the mandible in all cases of mandibular ameloblastoma. The free fibular microvascular flap is our treatment of choice as all defects of the mandible can be reconstructed with the free fibular flap. Wide excision is the key to prevent a recurrence.

Abstract
Korean Society of Thyroid-Head and Neck Surgery appointed a Task Force to provide guidance on the implementation of a surgical treatment of oral cancer. MEDLINE databases were searched for articles on subjects related to “surgical management of oral cancer” published in English. Results were restricted to systematic reviews, randomized control trials/controlled clinical trials, and observational studies. The quality of evidence was rated with use RoBANS (Risk of Bias Assessment Tool for Nonrandomized Studies) and AMSTAR (A Measurement Tool to Assess the Methodological Quality of Systematic Reviews). Evidence-based recommendations for practice were ranked according to the American College of Physicians grading system. Additional directives are provided as expert opinions and Delphi questionnaire when insufficient evidence existed. The Committee developed 68 evidence-based recommendations in 34 categories intended to assist clinicians and patients and counselors, and health policy-makers. Proper surgical treatment selection for oral cancer, which is directed by patient- and subsite-specific factors, remains the greatest predictor of successful treatment outcomes. These guidelines are intended for use in conjunction with the individual patient’s treatment goals.

Abstract
: Mandibular reconstruction in pediatric patients is controversial. The scant pediatric experience and the infrequent occurrence of this type of pathology in children complicate therapeutic decisions. The literature contains different treatment protocols and describes the bone graft alternatives to be used. MATERIALS AND METHOD This is a retrospective review of patients under the age of 15 who were subjected to resection and reconstruction. RESULTS A total of 18 patients were included in the study: 8 women and 10 men. The age on the date of diagnosis ranged from 2 years to 13 years and the average was 7 years. Five patients underwent resective surgery for a malign pathology, 7 for a benign pathology, 4 for aggressive lesions of odontogenic origin, and 1for the effects of a fracture that was complicated by osteomyelitis. CONCLUSIONS In conclusion, treating pediatric patients with tumor pathology requires an experience pediatric team to get good outcomes. Surgeons must consider that pediatric patients are in constant growth and development but that must not be an issue in resection and reconstruction decisions. Literature review shows that, as in adults, free flaps seem to be the criterion standard for big resections in mandibles defects, and are safe to use in pediatric patients.

Is Distraction Osteogenesis of the Irradiated Craniofacial Skeleton Contraindicated? J Craniofac Surg 2017; 28:1236-1241.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Craniofacial distraction osteogenesis (DO) is a common treatment modality today. Despite its numerous advantages, however, concerns have been expressed regarding the use of DO in the irradiated setting. METHODS A systematic review was performed to identify all published reports of patients who underwent DO of the irradiated craniofacial skeleton. The following parameters were of particular interest: postoperative complications, specifically, insufficient bone formation, fracture, and hardware exposure (intraoral and cutaneous), as well as the need for additional bone grafting. RESULTS The initial search retrieved a total of 183 articles of which 20 articles (38 patients) met predetermined inclusion criteria. The most common site of distraction was the mandible (76.3%). The median radiation dose was 50.7 Gy (range, 30-70 Gy). Bone defects ranged from 30 to 80 mm (median, 42.5 mm). Complications were encountered in 19 patients (50%), with insufficient bone formation being most common (9 patients; 23%). The overall incidence of complications was not significantly associated with radiation dosage (P = 0.79). The remaining procedural and demographic variables also failed to meet statistical significance when compared against the overall complication rate (P = 0.27-0.97). CONCLUSION The complication rate associated with craniofacial DO of the irradiated skeleton does not appear to be substantially higher than what is reported for DO in the nonirradiated setting. As such, patients should be offered this treatment modality, particularly in light of the fact, that it offers the option to decrease patient morbidity as well as treatment complexity.

Abstract
Background Bifocal distraction osteogenesis has been shown to be a reliable method for reconstructing segmental mandibular defects. However, there are few reports regarding the occurrence of inferior alveolar nerve regeneration during the process of distraction. Previously, we reported inferior alveolar nerve regeneration after distraction, and evaluated the regenerated nerve using histological and electrophysiological methods. In the present study, we investigated axons regenerated by bifocal distraction osteogenesis using retrograde transportation of horseradish peroxidase in the mandibles of dogs to determine their type and function. Methods and Findings Using a bifocal distraction osteogenesis method, we produced a 10-mm mandibular defect, including a nerve defect, in 11 dogs and distracted using a transport disk at a rate of 1 mm/day. The regenerated inferior alveolar nerve was evaluated by retrograde transportation of HRP in all dogs at 3 and 6 months after the first operation. At 3 and 6 months, HRP-labeled neurons were observed in the trigeminal ganglion. The number of HRP-labeled neurons in each section increased, while the cell body diameter of HRP-labeled neurons was reduced over time. Conclusions We found that the inferior alveolar nerve after bifocal distraction osteogenesis successfully recovered until peripheral tissue began to function. Although our research is still at the stage of animal experiments, it is considered that it will be possible to apply this method in the future to humans who have the mandibular defects.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Bifocal distraction osteogenesis has been shown to be a reliable method for reconstructing missing bone segments. However, there are no reports regarding inferior alveolar nerve regeneration during bifocal distraction. In the present study, the authors evaluated the function of inferior alveolar nerve regenerated by bifocal distraction after segmental resection in the mandibles of dogs. METHODS Using a bifocal distraction osteogenesis method, the authors produced a 10-mm mandibular defect and distracted the transport disk at a rate of 1 mm/day. The regenerated inferior alveolar nerve was evaluated by electrophysiologic analysis that was performed on all dogs after euthanasia at 3, 6, and 12 months after the first operation. RESULTS At 6 and 12 months, stable evoked potential measurements were obtained from the nerves throughout the study on electrophysiologic analyses. CONCLUSIONS The authors' results indicate that the inferior alveolar nerve regenerated by bifocal distraction osteogenesis functioned electrophysiologically at 6 months after the first operation. Although our research is still at the stage of animal experiments, future application in humans is considered to be possible.

Abstract
PURPOSE Bifocal distraction osteogenesis has been shown to be a reliable method for reconstructing missing bone segments. However, no reports have been published regarding inferior alveolar nerve regeneration during this procedure. We assumed that the nerve could regenerate with the bone regeneration during bifocal distraction, if the nerve had been saved at a mesial site of the transport disc. In the present study, we investigated that possibility in dogs. MATERIALS AND METHODS Using a bifocal distraction osteogenesis method, we produced a 10-mm mandibular defect, including the nerve defect, and distracted the transport disc at a rate of 1 mm/day in 12 dogs. The nerve was saved at the mesial site of the transport disc. The regenerated nerve was evaluated by a jaw opening reflex examination performed once daily. Histologic examinations with hematoxylin-eosin and immunohistochemical staining with neurofilament and S-100 antibody were also performed on all dogs after death at 3, 6, and 12 months after the first operation. RESULTS The jaw opening reflex had recovered in all dogs. The average period of recovery was 109.5 ± 24.7 days. On histologic examination, although consecutive nerves were observed in all areas, cellular nerve fascicles were seen, consistent with wallerian degeneration at 3 and 6 months in the nerve connection area on the distal side of the transport disc. CONCLUSIONS Our results have indicated that inferior alveolar nerve regeneration after bifocal distraction osteogenesis is successful in dogs. Although our research is still at the stage of animal experiments, future application in humans can be considered to be possible.

Abstract
Objectives: To report on the use of lateral transport osteogenesis in cancer patients after maxillo/mandibular resections and on the implant survival rate in the generated bone
Material and Methods: Four patients treated using lateral transport osteogenesis entered this descriptive study and were retrospectively studied (mean age 55; range 41-62).
Results: Reconstruction of segmentary defects after surgical and radiological cancer treatment on maxilla and mandible was achieved. No relevant intra- or post-operative complications occurred. No differences on implant survival were observed between patients who had received radiotherapy and those who had not.
Conclusions: This approach can be considered a recommendable reconstructive option after oral cancer treatment –including radiotherapy- particularly for high-surgical-risk, collaborative patients.
Key words:Distraction osteogenesis, oral cancer, radiotherapy, reconstruction, dental implants.
