CLINICAL CASE N° 1 (figures 3-5 and 8)
A 48 year-old male patient, presenting stabilized hypertension and
hypercholesterolemia. A myoblastic type embryonic rhabdomyosarcoma in
the right cheek was diagnosed at the age of 2 years. Surgical removal of
the tumor and part of the cheek had been performed, combined with
curietherapy and multiple chemotherapies. Several reconstructions had
been implemented over the years (right jugal reconstruction using a back
perforating flap, a scapula free flap, bicommissuroplasty, etc). The
patient was referred to us for oral management. He wanted to have a
functional and esthetic rehabilitation with prostheses allowing an easy
oral hygiene maintenance.
