    Author: Suzuki T, Suzuki S, Kitami A, Hori G, Sumiya N.
    Journal: Scand J Thorac Cardiovasc Surg; 1995; 29(3):145-7. PubMed ID: 8614783.
    Abstract:
    Full-thickness reconstruction to repair defects in the chest wall was performed with a new method, using Marlex mesh, artificial bones and musculocutaneous flap. The artificial bones were constructed from ceramic iliac crest spacers connected by wires and methyl methacrylate. The advantage of the method is that the artificial bone can be created in various lengths and curves, tailored for the individual defect.
