@entity1 @entity5 @entity1567
BACKGROUND: The purpose of the study was to define the most appropriate management of the @entity1567 ( @entity1567 ) in young adults. METHODS: A retrospective study was performed on @entity1 with @entity1567 <30 years old. The data collected included initial treatment, @entity5 margins, reconstruction, and follow-up. @entity1 evaluated speech, chewing, swallowing, and facial appearance after definitive treatment. RESULTS: Thirteen @entity1 were identified with recurrent solid/multicystic disease requiring further treatment. Definitive treatment involved segmental mandibulectomy and reconstruction with free fibular flap in all @entity1 . Seven @entity1 had immediate reconstruction (group A) and 6 had secondary (group B). Mandibular resection was planned at least 2 cm beyond the radiological limit, free margins were achieved in all @entity1 , and all flaps were transplanted successfully. In group A, functional score was 13.7    0.45 and facial appearance score was 4.5    0.49, whereas in group B were 11.16    0.37 and 3.3    0.5, respectively (both p < .05). CONCLUSION: Aggressive resection of the @entity1567 and immediate reconstruction is strongly advised.    2015 Wiley Periodicals, Inc. Head Neck 38: E1947-E1954, 2016.
