Abstract
This article reports 20 cases elaborating the role of mandibular coronoid process as a graft in reconstruction of small continuity defects of residual or old zygomaticomaxillary complex (ZMC) fractures or the orbital floor fractures associated ZMC fractures. Though different other various autogenous and alloplastic materials are available, coronoid has its own advantages. The most important advantage of using coronoid graft is autogenous bone of intramembranous origin harvested through the same surgical site.
Various authors for small continuity defects have documented its use as a graft. All the cases in this report showed acceptable results. Thus, we recommend the use of coronoid process of the mandible as a source for autogenous bone graft as it can provide sufficient bone in quantity and quality for selected maxillofacial reconstructions.
