Tibial bone grafts provide an adequate volume of cancellous bone with cortical bone, high biologic value of bone, minimal gait disturbance and complications, and no special contraindications, and offer a superior clinical results than any other donor sites. Lateral appoach in tibial bone graft was used to gain large bone volume traditionally, but medial approach provides low morbidity associated with the tibial anatomic structure, simple and safety surgical procedure, and better comfortable to patients recently. We have undertaken clinical and retrospective studies on patients in Dept. of Oral and Maxillofacial Surgery, Inha University Hospital from April 2004 to January 2008. 50 patients have maxillofacial bony defect as resection of bening tumor, cyst enucleation, alveolar bone resorption, sinus pneumatization were received the tibial proximal autogenous particulated cancellous bone grafts. They were analyzed sex, age, diagnosis of recipient site, lesion size, dornor site, cortical bone repositioning, complications and we concluded favorable following results. 1. Medial approach for proximal tibia is safer and technically easier than lateral approach, associated with the proximal tibial anatomic structures, and short operative times. 2. Proximal tibia provides an adequate bone volume with predictability for oral and maxillofacial reconstruction. 3. Patients rarely complain of pain, swelling, discomfort and dysfunction such as gait disturbance. In conclusion, medial approach for proximal tibial graft seems to be a valuable tool for oral and maxillofacial reconstruction.
