LEG BONE to the JAW! PART 1 - DIAGNOSIS | AMELOBLASTOMA OMFS CASE 

I had this exact same condition and reconstruction in Baltimore at Johns Hopkins when I was between ages 14 and 21 in 1985 - 1991. Ameloblastoma in my left lower mandible, roughly 6cm. The tumor was removed with all molars up to and including the condial. Free fibular reconstruction with bone chips and marrow from both hips. Dental implants inserted from the outside during one of the procedures. Only one implant could be used which resulted in a 3 tooth bridge. The other implant was drilled out and I had to get a soft tissue graft to build up the vestibule. Soft tissue harvest was one of the worst parts of the entire ordeal. My left side is weaker and I predominantly chew on my right side but the left is fully functional with minor reduced ability to open my jaw and a somewhat crooked angle when I open wide.

Very nice presentation 👍

Was the lesion excised with the overlying mucosa and attached gingivea due to perforation of the bony plates ?

I have an ameloblastoma in my upper jaw and had it removed twice and is back. What would need to be done for the paper jaw?

Can we do heavy work and run after the bone took out from leg?.. will that bone grow again? Normal .. please reply me i want to know because i am have samee problem and my opt will me after 3 days plz help me
