The authors present the first cases of facial reconstruction with epithesy, treated in our structure. The Hospital “S.Andrea” is the first regional public structure to offer a complete treatment let alone the materials of the first application, totally covered by the National Sanitary Service; the next epithesy will have lower prices with respect to the private structures. With this work the Authors want to offer the most recent surgical technologies , such as the epithesis, making them accessible whoever needs.
