Genioplasty may considerably change a person's face which needs surgical correction of deformed chin. Comprehensive treatment planning is therefore decisive for the treatment to be successful. A three-dimensional analysis of chin relative to cranial base, upper and lower jaws using the frontal and lateral facial photographs and cephalographs permits classification of the defective chin position and provides a basis for operation planning and deciding upon the operation method. A chin miniplate system has been developed for intraoperative registration securing the sagittal, vertical and horizontal position of the osteotomized chin and ould reduce the relapse rate.

Objectives: The purpose of this study is to compare the postoperative stability of conventional orthognathic surgery to a surgery-first orthognathic approach after bilateral sagittal split ramus osteotomy (BSSRO). Materials and Methods: The study included 20 patients who underwent BSSRO for skeletal class III conventional orthognathic surgery and 20 patients who underwent a surgery-first orthognathic approach. Serial lateral cephalograms were analyzed to identify skeletal changes before surgery (T0), immediately after surgery (T1), and after surgery (T2, after 1 year or at debonding). Results: The amount of relapse of the mandible in the conventional orthognathic surgery group from T1 to T2 was $2.23{\pm}0.92mm$ (P<0.01) forward movement and $-0.87{\pm}0.57mm$ (non-significant, NS) upward movement on the basis of point B and $2.54{\pm}1.37mm$ (P<0.01) forward movement and $-1.18{\pm}0.79mm$ (NS) upward movement on the basis of the pogonion (Pog) point. The relapse amount of the mandible in the surgery-first orthognathic approach group from T1 to T2 was $3.49{\pm}1.71mm$ (P<0.01) forward movement and $-1.78{\pm}0.81mm$ (P<0.01) upward movement on the basis of the point B and $4.11{\pm}1.93mm$ (P<0.01) forward movement and $-2.40{\pm}0.98mm$ (P<0.01) upward movement on the basis of the Pog. Conclusion: The greater horizontal and vertical relapse may appear because of counter-clockwise rotation of the mandible in surgery-first orthognathic approach. Therefore, careful planning and skeletal stability should be considered in orthognathic surgery.

Purpose: The purpose of the present study was to evaluate the postoperative skeletal stability of two-jaw surgery (Le Fort I osteotomy and bilateral sagittal split ramus osteotomy) via surgery first orthodontic treatment (SFOT) in class III malocclusion. Methods: Thirty-two patients who had two-jaw surgery via SFOT were included in this study. Serial lateral cephalograms were obtained before (T0), immediately after (T1), and six months after (T2) surgery. Twelve variables were measured for horizontal and vertical skeletal stability as well as for dental change. All measurements were evaluated statistically by a paired t-test ($P$ <0.05). Results: The mean skeletal changes were $0.1{\pm}2.5$ mm at point A and $-12.0{\pm}7.4$ mm at the pogonion. The mean horizontal relapse was 11.6% at the pogonion, and the mean vertical surgical changes included an upward displacement of $2.1{\pm}7.1$ mm and a forward displacement of $1.4{\pm}4.6$ mm at the pogonion. Upper incisor inclination decreased after surgery and was maintained at T2, and lower incisors were proclined from T1 to T2 by postsurgical orthodontic treatment. Conclusion: Postoperative skeletal stability of two-jaw surgery via surgery first orthodontic treatment in class III malocclusion was clinically acceptable.

This study was conducted for the purpose of suggestion of the new technique of sagittal split ramus osteotomy pararell to the true sagittal plane. This pararellism is the important concept of the sagittal split ramus osteotomy to reduce the condylar sagging including mandibular hypomobility, temporomandibular disorder, occlusal relapse and other complications. We used 26 adult dry manibles(52 rami), and obtained the computed tomographs through the sagittal, horizontal and coronal sections. The results were obtained as follows. 1. On sagittal section, mean area of S1 was $8.63{\pm}2.10cm^2$, S2 was $8.93{\pm}1.94cm^2$, S3 was $9.49{\pm}2.15cm^2$, S6 was $10.72{\pm}2.22cm^2$. The wider area of sagittal section, the more lateral section, But, no significant differency between the areas of the sagittal sections(P>0.05). 2. On horizontal section, The distance between the inferior alveolar canal and the lateral cortical plate of the mandibular ramus were $6.73{\pm}1.24mm$ minum, $7.70{\pm}1.44mm$ maximum. 3. On coronal section, Outer mandibular angle were $4.84{\pm}2.37^{\circ}$ right side, $4.93{\pm}2.12^{\circ}$ left side. 4. The design of the ideal true sagittal split ramus osteotomy is that posterior border of osteotomy must be limited vertically, at the right posterior point of lingula mandibularis and anterior of osteotomy must be extended to mandibular body, anteroinferiorly.

Purpose : The purpose of the present study was to evaluate postoperative stability and soft-tissue osseous relations of the long face syndrome patients. Methods : Twenty-five patients who had undergone bimaxillary surgery to correct long face syndrome at the Pusan National University Hospital were evaluated. The lateral cephalograms of preoperative, 1 week postoperative and at least 1 year postoperative were examined. Results : 1. The facial height of the long face syndrome patients were longer than normal Korean adults. 2. The most common malocclusion type of the long face syndrome patients in Korea was class III. 3. Horizontal postoperative skeletal relapses were $-0.64{\sim}0.80mm$ in the maxilla, and $-0.56{\sim}0.48mm$ in the mandible. 4. Vertical postoperative skeletal relapses were $0.20{\sim}0.56mm$ in the maxilla, and $-0.80{\sim}0.20mm$ in the mandible. 5. Postoperative soft tissue changes in long face syndrome patients were correlated with postoperative skeletal changes. So prediction schemes for postoperative soft-tissue changes were obtainable. Conclusion : It is hard to predict the exact direction and quantity of the postoperative skeletal relapse in long face syndrome patient's orthognathic surgery because of large standard deviation. But soft tissue change is predictable via prediction scheme.

Seventeen rigid screw fixation and sixteen nonrigid wire fixation cases of mandibular sagittal slit ramus osteotomy were selected to compare postoperative dental and skeletal changes. A constructed horizontal plane was drawn seven degrees under sella-nasion plane and detailed cephalometirc assessment was applied to serial radiographic films taken before surgery($T_0$), immediately after surgery($T_1$), and at least six months after surgery($T_2$). Linear and angular positional changes were measured and analyzed statistically using paired t-test method and percent of positional changes(amount of post-op change/amount of intra-op change)${\times}100$. The results were as follows; 1. It was 29.4% in rigid fixation cases and 37.5% in nonrigid fixation cases comparing the postoperative positional change of more than 2mm at point B. So rigid fixation method was slightly more stable. 2. In nonrigid fixation cases, the positional change might be caused by incomplete bony union at the osteotomy site and soft tissue tension acting on this site. 3. In rigid fixation cases, the positional change might be caused by interaction between relapse tendency of protracted condyle-proximal segment and neighboring soft tissue tension.

In Korea, lateral canthoplasty, along with medial epicanthoplasty, has become popular over the past years to widen the horizontal length of the palpebral fissure. However, the effect of the surgery differs greatly depending on the shape and structure of the eyes. If over-widened, complications such as eversion, scarring, and conjunctival exposure may occur. Thus, the author of this study suggests a more effective and safe method for lateral canthal lengthening that causes minimal complications. A total of 236 patients underwent lateral canthoplasty between July 2007 and December 2015. For each patient, a triangular flap 4-5 mm away from the lateral canthus was elevated and rotated 45 degrees laterally while the continuity of the lower eyelid gray line was maintained. A new lateral canthus was created by fixating the rotation flap to the lateral orbital rim with minimal skin trimming and tension-free sutures, preventing relapse and maintaining a triangular shape. In more than 95% of cases, effective and satisfactory extension was achieved. On average, a 3 mm extension of the lateral canthus was achieved. There were minor complications such as wound dehiscence, webbing, and scarring, which were easily corrected. The author not only extended the lateral canthus 3-4 mm laterally but also maintained the continuity of the gray line on the lower lid as a more natural-looking triangular shape, while minimizing complications such as webbing and conjunctival exposure.

악안면 부조화를 치료하여 적절한 기능적, 심미적 형태를 얻고자 하는 악교정 수술에 있어서는 정확한 진단과 치료계획의 수립이 필수적이다. 특히 심한 상 하악의 복합적인 문제를 가지고 있는 경우에 시행되는 양악 수술에선 상악골과 하악골이 삼차원적인 공간에서 동시에 재배치되는데, 상악골의 재배치에 따라 하악골은 전후 좌우 위치가 결정되면서 새로운 교합평면이 만들어진다. 따라서 교합평면은 양악 수술에서 중요한 기준이 되어 상악골의 새로운 위치를 결정하게되므로 진단 및 치료계획 수립시에 최적의 기능적, 심미적 결과와 수술 후 안정성을 얻을 수 있게 계획되어져야 한다. 본 연구에서는 양악 수술을 시행받은 골격성 제 III급 부정교합 환자 48명(남자25명 여자23명, 평균 연령 21.5세)을 대상으로 하여 교합평면의 설정에 사용되어지는 몇 가지 진단 기준중, 많이 사용되어지고 있는 Delaire의 구조적, 구성적 분석에 의한 각 개인의 이상적인 교합평면으로 수술되었을 때 경조직의 술후 안정성에 대해서 평가하고자 이상적인 교합평면에 부합되게 수술이 시행된 군(A군-24명)과 이 평면에서 벗어난 군(B군-24명)으로 나누어, 수술 직전($T_1$) 과 수술 직후($T_2$-평균 4.3일), 수술 8개월 이상 경과 후($T_3$-평균 1년 3개월)에 두군의 측모 두부 방사선 사진을 비교하여 다음과 같은 결론을 내렸다. 1. A군과 B군 모두 수술에 의하여 ANS의 수직적 위치보다 PNS의 수직적 위치가 감소되었다. 즉 상하악 복합체가 후상방으로 회전되었다. 2. $T_3$에 $T_2$와 유의차를 보이는 값은 두군 모두에서 수직 계측항목에서 HRP-Me(p<0.01), 각도 계측항목에선 Articular angle(p<0.01), Gonial angle(p<0.01), Mn. plane angle(p<0.05)이 유의차를 보였다. 두 군 모두에서 HRP-Me이 감소하면서 하악평면각은 증가 하였다. 3. A군과 B군사이에서 술후 경조직의 안정성에는 유의성 있는 차이가 없었다. 4. 수술에 의한 B와 Pog.의 수평 이동량은 수술후 B와 Pog.의 수평 재발량과 그리고 PNS의 수직 재발량과 통계적으로 유의성 있는 높은 역상관관계를 보였고, 하악평면각의 수술에 의한 변화량과 gonial angle의 술후 변화량과도 통계적으로 유의성 있는 높은 역상관관계를 보였다.

본원에서 하악지시상골 절단술을 시행한 하악전돌증 환자 29명 (남자 12명, 여자 17명)을 대상으로 수술전, 수술후, 장기관찰기간동안 경조직과 연조직 변화를 관찰한 결과 다음과 같은 결과를 얻었다. 1. 술후 하악은 반시계방향회전하면서 후방이동 하였으며 장기관찰시 B와 Pog에서 1.23mm, 1.28mm의 재발을 보였다. 이는 술후의 하악이동에 따른 순수한 효과(Net effect)가 81.7%, 82.2% 라는 것을 의미하며 이러한 재발로 인하여 수술의 효과를 감소시킬 수 있다는 사실을 술전 치료계획에 포함시켜야 한다고 할 수 있다. 2. 하악 경조직의 수평변화에 대한 하악 연조직의 변화비율은 하순구에서 100%, 이부에서 99.1-102.1% 로 나타났으며 하순의 경우 72.7-93.7% 로 나타났으며 상순의 경우 하악 전치 이동량의 5.7% 정도 후방 이동하게 되지만 통계적 상관관계는 미약했으나. 수직적으로 8.3-9.6% 정도 유의한 하방이동양상을 보였다. 3. 술수 상순과 하순의 관계가 개선되어 심미선에 대하여 상순(Ls)은 상대적으로 동출하고 하순(Li)은 후방이동하였으며, 상순구가 얕아지고 하순구가 깊어졌으며, 비순각이 개선되어 전반적 안모가 개선되었으나 턱부위의 전돌은 수술후에도 약간 남아있었다. 4. 하악 연조직점을 종속변수로, 하악 경조직점을 독립변수로한 회귀분석에서 경조직 변화와 연조직 변화 사이의 높은 상관관계가 있다고 하여도 이를 정확하게 예측하기 어렵다는 것을 알 수 있었으며, 연조직 두께와 수평이동사이에는 통계적 유의성이 없었다.
