Hemimandibulectomy
Know Your Surgery
Hemimandibulectomy is a surgical procedure involving the removal of one half (hemimandible) of the lower jaw (mandible). This procedure is typically performed to treat conditions such as tumors, infections, or severe trauma affecting one side of the mandible. It may be required for benign or malignant tumors, including cancers, or in cases where the jaw has been extensively damaged and cannot be repaired through other methods.
