Monobloc Differential Distraction Osteogenesis

Journal of Craniofacial Surgery, 2021
Abstract Midface advancement at the monobloc level can be the seminal life event for patients with craniofacial dysostosis. Monobloc reconstruction, when planned appropriately, can simultaneously and definitively address multiple functional and aesthetic deficiencies in these patients. The application of distraction has reduced

Segmental curvilinear distraction osteogenesis

Medical Hypotheses, 2012
Curvilinear distraction is currently under investigation to reconstruct curved maxillofacial bone defects. However, previous studies have revealed the discrepancy between the contour of the regenerated bone in the distraction gap and the curvilinear pathway of the transport disc.

Intraoral mandibular distraction osteogenesis

Seminars in Orthodontics, 1999
During recent years, distraction osteogenesis has gained in popularity for the treatment of various bone deficiencies either in the vertical, transverse, or anteroposterior dimension. Distraction osteogenesis has been shown to be an effective technique for mandibular widening and lengthening where traditional orthognathic surgery has important ...

Fracture after distraction osteogenesis

The Journal of Bone and Joint Surgery. British volume, 2000
We reviewed 173 patients undergoing distraction osteogenesis to determine the incidence, location and timing of fractures occurring as a complication of the procedure. There were 17 fractures in 180 lengthened segments giving an overall rate of fracture of 9.4%.

Callus Stimulation in Distraction Osteogenesis

Plastic and Reconstructive Surgery, 2002
Distraction 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.

Multidimensional Distraction Osteogenesis

Plastic and Reconstructive Surgery, 1994
The principle of distraction osteogenesis, well-established in the enchondral bones of the axial skeleton, has recently been applied to the membranous bones (mandible, cranium) of the craniofacial skeleton in the experimental animal and in the human. In the craniofacial skeleton, however, the technique has been used only to lengthen bone in a direction
