  • Title: Chondro-osseous iliac crest graft for one stage reconstruction of the ankylosed TMJ in children.
    Author: Kummoona R.
    Journal: J Maxillofac Surg; 1986 Aug; 14(4):215-20. PubMed ID: 3525723.
    Abstract:
    In 6 children, an ankylosed temporo-mandibular joint was replaced by a chondro-osseous graft from the iliac crest. The technique is described. The long term results show that this procedure is technically successful. It is also demonstrated that the graft has the possibility to react to functional stimuli. This enables it to grow in a multidirectional manner.
