  • Title: [Morbidity of iliac bone grafts. A study apropos of 100 consecutive cases].
    Author: Harbon S, Chartouni M, Ricbourg B.
    Journal: Ann Chir Plast Esthet; 1991; 36(1):45-50. PubMed ID: 1712165.
    Abstract:
    A study of the real morbidity after iliac bone graft harvesting was conducted on a homogenous series of 100 consecutive cases. Functional and aesthetic consequences were evaluated in relation to the immediate post-operative course and the long-term follow-up and in relation to the indication, the technique used and the amount of bone removed. Considering the small number of sequelae observed, autogenous iliac bone graft remains the best material for craniomaxillofacial reconstruction. The main disadvantage consists of the resorptions noted; which raises the possibility of using other types of bone grafts or bio-materials in some indications.
