Iliac crest bone grafting for mandibular reconstruction: 10-year experience outcomes

Nonvascularized iliac crest bone grafts are highly successful in mandibular continuity reconstruction for non-Cancer patients and should be considered as first choice for defects less than 9 cm. They are less predictable for defects larger than 9 cm but can be considered in these cases with osteoconductive cribs. Symphysis involvement may or may not be associated with lower success rate if our protocol is followed.
