概要 BACKGROUND:Although vascularized bone graft (VBG) transfer is the current standard for mandibular reconstruction, reconstruction with a mandibular reconstruction plate (MRP) and with a soft-tissue flap (STF) alone remain crucial options for patients with poor general conditions. However, objective aesthetic outcome evaluations for these methods are limited.METHODS:In a retrospective analysis of 65 patients (VBG, 33; MRP, 19; and STF, 13), mandibular asymmetry value was calculated for each patient's photograph using facial recognition AI, with a higher value indicating worse asymmetry.RESULTS:The MRP group had a value comparable to the VBG group regardless of mandibular defect types. The STF group had a significantly higher value than the VBG group.CONCLUSIONS:Regarding cosmesis, STF was inferior to VBG, whereas MRP was comparable to VBG, even for anterior defects for which rigid reconstruction is mandatory. However, MRP's risks of plate-related complications limit its use to cases where VBG is contraindicated or with poor prognosis.
