Results of the Modified Brosch Approach and Rehabilitation of Mural Unicystic Ameloblastoma of the Mandible in a Young Patient

Although radical surgery results in craniofacial deformity, functional damage, and aesthetic harm, all of which have an immediate negative impact on a patient’s quality of life, it also has the lowest recurrence rate for biologically aggressive subtypes of mural unicystic ameloblastomas. The oral ap...

Sumario:Although radical surgery results in craniofacial deformity, functional damage, and aesthetic harm, all of which have an immediate negative impact on a patient’s quality of life, it also has the lowest recurrence rate for biologically aggressive subtypes of mural unicystic ameloblastomas. The oral approach removes the lingual cortex and exposes the entire buccal cortical plate in the area of the ascending and horizontal ramus to the full extent of the lesion. There is no obvious distortion of the soft tissues of the face following the modified Brosch procedure, which is also associated with rapid bone regeneration. This approach resulted in less invasive surgery and low surgical morbidity and recurrence in a young adult with a large mural unicystic ameloblastoma.
