[Free musculo-osseous flaps in maxillofacial surgery].

Development of microsurgery has involved the use of revascularized bone grafts in maxillo-facial surgery. They are essentially indicated in rebuilding of complex tissues lost including bone. Their utility is well know in maxillofacial surgery, cervico-facial cancerology, ballistics trauma and in the cure of some mandibular osteoradionecrosis. Only scapular and iliac autogenous bone transplants were used by the authors. Following their short experience, they preferred the pediculated iliac transplants on the deep circumflex vessels more easy to handle and more secure. They brought some modifications in the graft technics in order to decrease the functional and the esthetic damages at the donor site: the incisions were parallel to the iliac crest an to the crural arch. The transplant respected the integrity of the antero-superior-iliac-spine and the crural arch. At the receiving site the muscle was left denuded in the oral cavity. The reepithelialization was observed in a short time.
