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.

The Distraction Osteogenesis in Midfacial Hypoplasia
Journal of Craniofacial Surgery, 2014Distraction osteogenesis (DO) can generate new bone in a gap between 2 vascularized bone surfaces in response to application of graduated tensile stress across the bone gap. The authors present the clinical result in a cleft patient with severe maxillary deficiency treated by a rigid external distraction (RED) device.

Modeling distraction osteogenesis: analysis of the distraction rate
Biomechanics and Modeling in Mechanobiology, 2008Distraction osteogenesis is a useful technique aimed at inducing bone formation in widespread clinical applications. One of the most important factors that conditions the success of bone regeneration is the distraction rate. Since the mechanical environment around the osteotomy site is one of the main factors that affects both quantity and quality of ...

Maxillary Distraction Osteogenesis in a Patient With Osteogenesis Imperfecta
Journal of Craniofacial Surgery, 2019Abstract Osteogenesis imperfecta (OI) is characterized by brittle bones, premature hearing loss, blue sclera, dental abnormalities, and short stature. Maxillofacial pathology is marked in many OI patients and includes a high incidence of class III malocclusion secondary to a retrusive maxilla relative to both the mandible and ...

Distraction Osteogenesis of the Cleft Maxilla
Facial Plastic Surgery, 2008Distraction osteogenesis is a method of enhancing bony deficiencies of the hypoplastic cleft maxilla. Whether it is the result of inherited growth deficiency or of iatrogenic causes from operative intervention, 20 to 25% of cleft maxilla patients require maxillary advancement.
