Management of Severe Midface Hypoplasia Using a Rigid Internal Distraction System

Journal of Craniofacial Surgery
Patients with severe maxillary deficiency present a significant challenge for maxillofacial surgeons. These individuals often exhibit hypoplastic maxillae in all 3 spatial planes, frequently associated with dentofacial deformities such as cleft lip and palate. Midface hypoplasia has traditionally been treated with orthognathic surgery.

Internal Midface Distraction in Correction of Severe Maxillary Hypoplasia Secondary to Cleft Lip and Palate

Plastic and Reconstructive Surgery, 2005
Maxillary hypoplasia is a familiar deformity in patients with cleft lip and palate. A large amount of maxilla advancement is often needed to correct the severe deformity, but local soft-tissue scars around the maxilla restrict maxilla advancement and increase the relapse rate.

A Case of Improved Obstructive Sleep Apnea by Distraction Osteogenesis for Midface Hypoplasia of an Infantile Crouzon's Syndrome

Journal of Craniofacial Surgery, 2001
We performed Le Fort III midfacial advancement with gradual distraction using internal devices on a 2-year 5-month-old boy with Crouzon's syndrome with associated severe obstructive sleep apnea. The device was not activated until 7 days after surgery, after which the distraction was initiated, 1 mm per day, and the midface was advanced 4 mm ...

A cephalometric guide to the diagnosis of midface hypoplasia at the Le Fort II level.

Journal of oral surgery (American Dental Association : 1965), 1977
A cephalometric study of the relation of the malar eminence to the A point has been made. It is proposed that the orbital-NA distance is of clinical importance in patients with SNA of less than 79 degrees in whom a Le Fort I osteotomy procedure is contemplated.

["Quadrangular" Le Fort II osteotomy for hypoplasia of the midface. Apropos of 28 cases].

Annales de chirurgie plastique et esthetique, 1991
In 1971, Kufner described the "quadrangular" osteotomy of the midface, which he used to correct asymmetry in patients with recession of the midface and a normal nasal skeleton. We have used this method in 28 patients, 5 women and 23 men. The surgical technique is described and the indications, the approach and the stability of the postoperative results
