Abstract: PURPOSE: To evaluate the use of maxillofacial miniplate 1.5 in the repair of segmental mandibular defects filled with autogenous bone in cats. METHODS: Twelve adult cats were divided into two groups. A segmental defect of 4mm was created in one of the hemimandibles and filled with autogenous iliac crest bone graft. The operated hemimandible was fixed with a 1.5mm titanium miniplate. In group 1 (n=6), the defect was performed in the body of the mandible, behind the 1st molar. In group 2 (n=6), the defect was pe… Show more

“…Mandibular defects have been extensively studied in large-animal models in order to simulate the biomechanical forces and approximate size of the human mandible. [13][14][15][16][17][18][19][20][21][22] However, these investigations necessitate resource-intensive animal husbandry, increased cost, smaller sample sizes, and lengthy recovery periods in comparison to smallanimal models. Murine models therefore permit rapid throughput of tissue engineering strategies that may reintroduce NBGs as a reconstructive option for head and neck cancer patients following radiotherapy.…”
