Study Data from Shanghai Jiao Tong University Update Knowledge of Bone Resorption (Loop-neurorrhaphy Technique for Preventing Bone Resorption and Preserving Sensation In Mandibular Reconstruction).

A study conducted by Shanghai Jiao Tong University in China explored the use of an innervated vascularized iliac bone flap to prevent bone resorption and maintain sensory function in mandibular reconstruction. The research involved 40 participants, with results showing lower bone quality loss and improved sensory recovery in the innervated group compared to the control group. The study concluded that this novel approach is effective in preserving lower lip sensation and preventing bone resorption during mandibular reconstruction. [Extracted from the article]
