DIAZ FERNANDEZ, José Manuel  y  PEREZ ARREDONDO, . Ricardo. Injerto óseo del seno maxilar en la reparación de defectos craneofaciales específicos. Rev Cubana Estomatol [online]. 1998, vol.35, n.2, pp. 37-42. ISSN 1561-297X.

A retrospective study was performed of 56 patients who had specific craniofacial defects which were treated with reconstructive methods with the autogenous bone graft of the anterior maxillar sinus wall in the Maxillofacial Surgery Service at "Saturnino Lora" Provincial Hospital in Santiago de Cuba province from 1986 to 1994. This type of grafting proved to be safe in the reconstruction of maximum 2 cm long 3 cm wide orbitary floor fractures and of facial configuration defects in such areas as front, nasal pyramide, zigomatic corpus, zigomatic maxillary support, corpus mandibullae, and upper or low orbitary fissure. The post-operation morbility was minimum as well as the access path that prevents the external acarf and complications like pneumothorax, perforation of dura mater and movement difficulties sometimes present in the traditional donor areas.
