Accurate assessment of tissue expansion in the lower face and anterior neck by a simple measurement technique

A simple, precise method of clinical estimation for the accurate assessment of tissue expansion in the lower face and anterior neck is described using fixed anatomical reference points. The method makes it possible to select the most suitable size of tissue expander and to decide the optimal timing...

description A simple, precise method of clinical estimation for the accurate assessment of tissue expansion in the lower face and anterior neck is described using fixed anatomical reference points. The method makes it possible to select the most suitable size of tissue expander and to decide the optimal timing of operation. By recording the baseline data before expansion and repeating measurements as expansion proceeds, the discrepancy of the expectation between the surgeon and patient concerning the postoperative result can also be minimised.
