“…LINDQ-VIST et al 4 and WESTERMARK et al 15 report that condylar replacement alone may result in erosion of the fossa and advocate a prosthetic TMJ reconstruction with both joint components. MARX et al 5 , in a study with a mean follow-up close to 8 years, report a good clinical outcome in 131 cases in which condylar/ramus resections were reconstructed with condyle bearing reconstruction plates alone. In only one case was major fossa erosion observed.…”

“…Therefore, reports of condylar prosthesis in head and neck cancer reconstruction are rare and with mixed results. 8 The flexibility of free tissue transfer has been the method of choice for reconstruction of sizable defects in head and neck reconstruction. Vascularized bone flaps, in general, provide the best functional and aesthetic outcome with the fibular flap remaining the golden standard for mandible reconstruction.…”

“…Previous investigations into alloplastic mandibular condylar replacement have met with mixed results because they reported only a limited number of patients with short-term follow-up. 8 Nowadays, reconstruction of the condyle after an ablative procedure for cancer remains a surgical challenge. In this retrospective case serial study, we conducted an outcome analysis of mandibular condylar replacement in head and neck tumor reconstruction.…”

Reconstruction of the condyle after an ablative procedure for mouth neoplasms remains a surgical challenge because these patients with advanced cancer involving the condyle are subjected to massive ablative surgery, and subsequent major reconstruction with free flap and/ or reconstruction prosthesis, the prognosis being poor. Therefore, reports of condylar prosthesis in head and neck cancer reconstruction are rare and with mixed results. This report is for the review of the literature and case series study of the condylar prosthesis. As with virtual technique improvement nowadays, an innovation CAD CAM technique is applied for the treatment plan for these patients. We analyze a serial case of advanced oral neoplasms who receives tumor ablation, i.e., mandibulectomy and disarticular resection, and gains symmetrical mandibular architecture after reconstruction with plate and condylar prosthesis. There is still high complication rate (41.7%) noted, namely condylar prosthesis displacement (two cases), impinge on external ear canal (two cases), and erosion of cranial base (one case).The reasons are attributed to massive flap burden, scar contraction, poor dental articulation, and possible technique error during the operation. According to the outcome analysis, virtual technique including with reconstruction plate and condylar prosthesis in conjunction with flap reconstruction are feasible treatment modality for this serial case of advanced oral neoplasms.
