  • Title: A spectrum of application of autogenous costochondral grafts.
    Author: MacIntosh RB, Henny FA.
    Journal: J Maxillofac Surg; 1977 Nov; 5(4):257-67. PubMed ID: 271187.
    Abstract:
    Autogenous costochondral grafts have found application in 26 variegated cases of congenital dysplasia, ankylosis, neoplastic disease, osteoarthritis, and post-traumatic dysfunction. The authors' experience with the grafting procedure has been generally favourable, but various difficulties have also arisen. There is a cursory discussion on the physiological superiority of rib cartilage grafts over those of other autogenous joints in reconstruction of the temporomandibular articulation.
