Journal ArticleDOI
Oromandibular reconstruction using microvascular composite flaps: report of 210 cases.
Mark L. Urken,Daniel Buchbinder,Peter D. Costantino,Uttam K. Sinha,Devin Okay,William Lawson,Hugh F. Biller +6 more
TL;DR: Dental implants can be safely used in oromandibular reconstruction with a high level of success and placing these implants during the initial surgery shortens the duration for achieving dental rehabilitation and enhances the success of the implants when postoperative radiotherapy is administered.
Journal ArticleDOI
Synthetic bone graft substitutes
TL;DR: It is entirely possible that within the next 10 to 15 years, the majority of "bone grafting" in craniofacial reconstructive surgery and in orthopedic surgery may be done with biologically active synthetic bone graft substitutes rather than natural bone sources.
Journal ArticleDOI
Hydroxyapatite Cement: I. Basic Chemistry and Histologic Properties
Peter D. Costantino,Craig D. Friedman,Kent Jones,Lawrence C. Chow,Lawrence C. Chow,Harold J. Pelzer,George A. Sisson,George A. Sisson +7 more
TL;DR: Histologic examination of the implant-soft-tissue interfaces revealed a transient inflammatory response without foreign body reaction, and hydroxyapatite cement may prove useful when applied to the reconstruction of non-stress-bearing skeletal tissue.
Journal ArticleDOI
Hydroxyapatite cement. II. Obliteration and reconstruction of the cat frontal sinus.
Craig D. Friedman,Peter D. Costantino,Kent Jones,Lawrence C. Chow,Harold J. Pelzer,George A. Sisson +5 more
TL;DR: The use of hydroxyapatite cement proved successful for the reconstruction and obliteration of cat frontal sinuses, and may be appropriate for the same application in humans.
Journal ArticleDOI
Segmental mandibular regeneration by distraction osteogenesis. An experimental study.
Peter D. Costantino,George T. Shybut,Craig D. Friedman,Harold J. Pelzer,Michael A Masini,Maise L. Shindo,George A. Sisson +6 more
TL;DR: In a canine model, 2.5-cm segmental mandibular defects were filled with regenerate bone in 25 days at a rate of 1.0 mm/d using bifocal distraction osteogenesis, and all animals resumed normal oromandibular function following regeneration.
