Background: The long-term outcomes in pediatric patients with various extents of mandible defects have not been well-documented. Methods: A retrospective case series in which this study looked at pediatric patients under the age of 13 who had mandibular reconstruction with free fibular flap and had not received another operation in the previous 6 months. The eating, swallowing, speech function, and quality of life are evaluated with EORTC QLQ-H&N35 after the mandible growth spurt has occurred. Results: A total of 7 patients were included in this study with operation ages ranging from 6 years 1 month to 12 years 2 months. The etiology of malignant tumors was found in 2 patients and benign tumors in 5 patients. The mandibular defect distribution consists of 1 class Ic, 1 class II, 2 class IIc, 2 class III, and 1 class IVc. All patients reported no swallowing or speech difficulties. However, transient eating trouble was seen in 1 patient due to the extensive defect size that causes tooth loss. Only 1 patient received dental rehabilitation. The patients displayed an overall good quality of life with an average score of 2.857. Conclusions: Free fibular flap for mandibular reconstruction in children who have not reached their mandibular growth peak have a satisfying outcome, both in their function and quality of life. © 2024 Lippincott Williams and Wilkins.
