Maxillomandibular Distraction Osteogenesis
Journal of Craniofacial Surgery, 2014Distraction osteogenesis (DO) is a biologic process of new bone formation between the surfaces of bone segments that are gradually separated by incremental traction. It consists of 4 primary phases, namely, corticotomy and device placement, a latency period, active distraction, and consolidation. The objectives of the current study were to review DO as

Distraction osteogenesis--a review
British Dental Journal, 1998This review describes the technique of distraction osteogenesis, outlining its application and current developments for the correction of craniofacial anomalies. Also described are some of the difficulties and complications which can arise with speculation on how this may be overcome.

Distraction Osteogenesis of the Midface
Oral and Maxillofacial Surgery Clinics of North America, 2005Distraction osteogenesis has become an important part of pediatric oral and maxillofacial surgery. It is especially useful in the midface to overcome the perturbations of growth caused by congenital malformations, benign and malignant tumors, and traumatic injuries.

Journal of the American Academy of Orthopaedic Surgeons, 2006
The treatment of bone loss resulting from acute trauma has traditionally been a complex surgical problem. Numerous procedures have been devised to reconstitute bone stock, obtain fracture union, and provide a stable functional limb. Traditional internal bone transport has been used successfully for bony reconstruction for both acute and reconstructive ...

Distraction Osteogenesis in the Hand
Plastic and Reconstructive Surgery, 1998Distraction osteogenesis was used to correct congenital hand deformities in 12 digits. The patients' ages at the time of distraction ranged between 2.5 and 7 years. A total of nine patients underwent lengthening of 12 bones. The average period of distraction was 31.1 +/- 17.6 days. The average length of distraction was 23.6 +/- 7.3 mm.

Distraction osteogenesis of the mandible
Current Opinion in Otolaryngology & Head and Neck Surgery, 2004Airway obstruction and craniofacial deformities resulting from mandibular deficiency are challenging and complex clinical problems. Mandibular distraction osteogenesis is playing a rapidly expanding role in the treatment of these children and has supplanted traditional management techniques in many centers. Several recent studies have reviewed clinical

Mandibular Distraction Osteogenesis
Journal of Craniofacial Surgery, 2019Abstract Mandibular hypoplasia is a common dentofacial deformity requiring a combination of orthodontic and surgical treatment. Before the introduction of distraction osteogenesis various orthognathic surgical procedures were carried out to treat mandibular hypoplasia.

Craniofacial Distraction Osteogenesis
Facial Plastic Surgery Clinics of North America, 2014Distraction osteogenesis (DO) may be the most versatile tool to become available to the craniofacial surgeon in recent years. It can be used in an ever-expanding register of clinical scenarios and offers major advantages over conventional craniofacial techniques in some circumstances.

Callus Stimulation in Distraction Osteogenesis
Plastic and Reconstructive Surgery, 2002Distraction osteogenesis has been described as in vivo tissue engineering. The ability to stimulate this process for the repair of bony defects or lengthening of congenitally shortened facial structures is likely to significantly impact the field of craniofacial surgery.

Counterclockwise Craniofacial Distraction Osteogenesis
Clinics in Plastic Surgery, 2021Anatomic studies have identified that patients with Treacher Collins syndrome and some cases of bilateral craniofacial microsomia are characterized by multilevel airway obstruction as a result of hypoplasia and clockwise rotation of the maxillomandibular complex.
