Comparaison of the Accuracy of Immediate Fibula Reconstruction With Implants in Fresh Versus Delayed Cases
Egypt22 participantsStarted 2026-01-02
Plain-language summary
The goal of this clinical trial is to learn if mandibular reconstruction with immediate dental implants is as accurate in fresh cases and delayed cases
The accuracy of the fibular segments and dental implants will be compared in both groups
Participants will:
undergo a preoperative CT scan with VSP for mandibular reconstruction Undergo the surgical procedure Undergo an immediate postoperative CT scan and have it superimposed on the virtual plan to detect inaccuracies

AI-rewrites the medical criteria so a patient or caregiver can understand them. Always confirm with the trial site.
Inclusion Criteria for participants:
* Adult patients with conditions requiring mandibular reconstruction using fibula free flaps.
* Adult patients diagnosed with neoplastic conditions requiring resection and agreed to immediate reconstruction
* Adult patients with segmental mandibular defects resulting from previous pathology, trauma, infectious conditions
* Patients willing for the surgical procedure and follow-up, with an informed consent.
Exclusion Criteria for participants:
* Patients with significant medical diseases and comorbidities preventing them undergoing lengthy procedures under general anesthesia
* Patients with Peripheral Vascular Disease
* Patient with known allergy to contrast media in whom a CTA of the lower limbs will not be possible
* Patients with Peronea Magna where the peroneal artery is the main blood supply of the lower limbs and its harvesting might result in compromise of the leg vascularity
* Patients with no desire for surgical correction
* Patients with any diseases that compromise bone or soft tissue healing. Patients with local pathosis that interfere with the bone healing.
Questions worth asking your doctor
Bring these to your next appointment. They're a starting point for a shared conversation — not a sign you qualify or a recommendation to enrol.
1Based on my diagnosis and history, is this trial worth exploring for me — or is there a standard treatment we should try first?
2What does this trial's phase tell us about how much is already known about its safety and benefit?
3What would taking part actually involve for me — visits, tests, time, and travel?
4What are the known and possible risks or side effects I should weigh, and how would they be monitored?
5If this trial isn't the right fit, what other options or trials would you suggest I look into?
Generated to help you prepare — always confirm anything about your own eligibility and care with the study team and your doctor.
Questions for the trial coordinator
The trial coordinator is the person who runs the study day to day. These cover the practical side — logistics, costs, and what taking part would actually mean for your life. The study team confirms whether you meet the criteria; these are questions to ask, not a sign you qualify.
1What does taking part actually involve week to week — how many visits, where, and how long does each one take?
2What costs are covered by the study, and what might I have to pay for myself, including travel, parking, or time off work?
3What happens during screening, and what happens if the study team confirms I don't meet the criteria after those tests?
4Who pays for the scans, blood work, and other tests the trial requires — the study, my insurance, or me?
5How will being in the trial affect my regular care, and will my own doctor stay informed and involved?
6Can I leave the trial at any point if I change my mind, and what would happen to my care if I do?
A starting point for the conversation — always confirm anything about your own eligibility, costs, and care with the study team and your doctor.
