Abstract

This study focused on using the mandibular outer cortex for orbital and maxillary augmentation of oblique facial clefts. Eight oblique facial clefts were reconstructed with the mandibular outer cortex from April 2000 to April 2008. No visible scars and few complications were observed at the donor site. Postoperative follow-up for 6 months to 3 years demonstrated that all of the patients had good aesthetic facial appearances. The mandibular outer cortex can be used for orbital and maxillary augmentation of oblique facial clefts.
