Hello,
My brother's titanium and cadaver bone jaw did not take. He was having massive infections, so today he went to OHSU to have a huge surgery. The removed the implants, titanium, and cadaver bone and cleaned up his jaw line. They found more bullet fragments and cleaned those out. Then, they remove his fibula from his leg including the arteries and used it to make his new jaw. This required a tracheotomy. The surgery lasted 11 hours.
Then, in post op, they discovered the new arteries were not bleeding, so he had a second surgery. That was another 3 hours.
He is resting now.
