[Synthetic materials in reconstructive maxillofacial surgery].

Surgical or traumatic losses of substances should preferably be made good by autografts, though "alloplastic implants" are a sound alternative. An account is given of the chemical and physical properties of intrinsic and manmade synthetic polymers. The best polymers for the preparation of endoprostheses are indicated, and reference is made to their more common indications in maxillofacial reconstructive surgery.

Surgical treatment of temporomandibular joint ankylosis.

The patient must be made to understand that a normal joint cannot be constructed by any surgical procedure and his part in the rehabilitation programme must be specifically stressed and assurance must be obtained from him that he is willing to carry out instructions during the postoperative treatment. The surgeon must be self disciplined enough to demand the best of himself in any situation and never to be satisfied with less. The surgeon must be generally optimistic, but his knowledge of the local anatomy and the surgical pathology must constantly remind him of his limitations. He must know that we cannot construct a normal joint and we must not promise one.
