STUDY DESIGN: Mandibular reconstruction is a challenge. Several reconstructive techniques are available, and the individualization of choice for each patient leads to better results and quality of life for the individual. OBJECTIVE: The aim of this study is to evaluate the characteristics and complications of cases submitted to mandibular reconstruction with autogenous bone graft block of the iliac crest. METHODS: Records of 45 patients undergoing mandibular reconstruction with autogenous bone graft block of the iliac crest were analyzed from January 2000 to December 2014. The data collected included age, gender, etiology and graft size, surgical approach, complications, comorbidities, and habits and addictions. Analysis of variance, chi-square test, and Fisher exact test were used for analysis of the variables with a significance level of P < .05. RESULTS: The success rate of the 45 charts analyzed was 75.6%. No statistical differences were found between age and presence of complications, between defect size and presence or absence of complications, and between type of surgical approach and presence or absence of complications. CONCLUSION: According to our study, medical history may influence postoperative complications and require attention, though further studies should be performed to further elucidate the relationship between diseases and postoperative complications.
