Abstract
BACKGROUND: The year 2023 is the 100th anniversary of the birth of a prominent Russian maxillofacial surgeon, Doctor of Medical Sciences, Professor, and Major-General of the Medical Service, Nikita Mikhailovich Aleksandrov.
AIM: The purpose of this study was to highlight the scientific, clinical, pedagogical, and social activities of this prominent maxillofacial surgeon, as well as his services to military dentistry.
N.M. Aleksandrov was a pioneer in the development and introduction of endotracheal anesthesia in the USSR during surgical interventions of the face and neck. He is the author of several reconstructive methods, such as resection of the upper jaw with primary plastic surgery, otoplasty using Filatov stem tissues and local tissues, and lower lip plasty due to two symmetrical flaps of the upper lip. These methods were developed and implemented in clinical practice under his scientific supervision.
