Abstract
Background: Nonunion and plate exposure represent a major complication after mandibular reconstruction with free fibula flaps. These drawbacks may be resolved by geometric osteotomies increasing intersegmental bone contact area and stability.
Purpose: The aim of this study was to compare intersegmental bone contact and stability of geometric osteotomies to straight osteotomies in mandibular econstructions with free fibula grafts performed by robot-guided erbium-doped yttrium aluminum garnet laser osteotomy.
