ABSTRACT
Background: In the most common techniques of regeneration (guided bone regeneration, bone distraction and grafting), due to its biological mechanism, autogenous bone alone or combined is the gold standard for grafting. This is due its osteogenic potential derived from osteoblasts precursor cells contained transplanted bone. The graft of the tibia is a good surgical option since contains a suitable quantity of bone marrow with abundant number of viable cells; it shows discret sequels and provides a great survival of transplanted bone.
Objective: To present in a clinical case, the effectiveness of the graft of tibia in an alveolar bone defects greater than 2 cm, with good clinical results considering its osteogenic properties and low secondary morbidity.
Case report: Female patient 50 years-old, with class III of Seibert bone defect in an area of 46 and 47, in which is placed a graft from tibia, for posterior placement of 2 implants. At the surgical procedure two maxillofacial surgeons participated, one to obtain the graft and take care of the donor area and the other for the graft placement.
Results: At six months, it was clinically observed a vertical gain of approximately 5 mm. Through a tomography assessment, it was reported an increase of the alveolar ridge at the 46 area of 6.2 mm, whereas at 47 was 9 mm. The sequels were not other than pressure in the area of the tibia during the first postoperative week and a slight darkening of skin surrounding the wound.
Conclusion: The graft of tibia is an outpatient with many advantages, as it is the fact of containing a vast amount of cancellous bone, ensuring greater acceptance of the graft and low morbidity companion in patients. Complications reported are ecchymosis and post-operative pain and scarring in the long run.
