Reconstruction of mandible by folding up vascularized fibular free flap with simultaneous placement of implant

Objective: To investigate the characteristics of vascularized folding fibular free flap with simultanous placement of inplant. Methods:One case suffering from mandibular ameloblastoma underwent partial mandibulectomy.One vascularized fibular free flap was folded up and grafted to repair the mandibular defect with immediate insertion of one implant. Results: 6 months later,X-ray showed osseointegration between the implant and grafted bone. Conclusion: Vascularized folding fibular free flap with simultanous placement implant could be used to rehabilitate patient's facial contour and mastication at the same time.
