Postoperative skeletal stability was evaluated in combination of Le Fort I and U-shaped osteotomies for superior repositioning of maxilla in bi-maxillary surgeries in 30 consecutive patients. The fifteen patients underwent Le Fort I osteotomy alone and the other fifteen patients underwent Le Fort I and U-shaped osteotomies. In all patients, the maxilla was first osteomized and fixed with absorbable plates system. A bilateral sagittal split ramus osteotomy (BSSRO) of the mandible was then carried out and fixation was performed using absorbable plates. Maxillo-mandibular fixation with rubber ring was used for two weeks post-operatively in all patients. Lateral cephalograms were obtained pre-operatively, 1 day post-operatively, 6 months after surgery. The changes in anterior nasal spine (ANS), point A, upper incisior (U1), and point of maxillary tuberosity (PMT) were examined. The maxillas in the fifteen patients of both examination group were repositioned nearly in their planned positions during surgery and no significant post-operative changes in the examined points of the maxilla were found. These results suggest that a combination of a Le Fort I and U-shaped osteotomy is a useful technique for reliable superior repositioning of the maxilla. The post-operative change in the maxilla using this combination osteotomy was comparatively stable.

The aim of this study was to evaluate the amount and interrelationship of the soft and hard tissue changes after simultaneous maxillary clockwise rotation and mandibular setback surgery in skeletal class III malocclusion. The sample comprised of 16 adult patients who had anteroposterior skeletal discrepancy. These patients had received presurgical orthodontic treatment and surgical treatment which consisted of Le fort I Osteotomy and bilateral saggital split ramus osteotomy. The presurgical (T1) and postsurgical (T2) lateral cephalograms were evaluated. The computerized statistical analysis was carried out with SPSS/PC program. The results demonstrated a decrease in the vertical dimension in the soft and hard tissue. The nasolabial angle was increased and the mentolabial angle was decreased. The results showed also many statistically significant correlations(p<0.05). The lower lip closely followed the skeletal movement of the B- point in the horizontal plane. The double jaw rotation surgery can afford a good solution to solve the problems of class III malocclusion cases.

Enlow의 구조적 대응체 분석법은 다수의 평균에 의한 정상치와 비교하는 분석법과는 달리 개개인에서 두 개안면의 구성양상이 발달되어온 해부학적, 발육학적 특징의 복합체를 설명하는 방법이다. 본 연구에서는 악교정 수술을 시행한 골격성 III급 부정교합 환자 80명(남자 40명, 여자 40명)을 대상으로 구조적 대응체 분석법을 이용하여 수술 전후를 비교하고, 정상교합자와 비교하여 다음과 같은 결과를 얻었다. 1. 수술에 의해서 주로 하악지 전후방 길이(B3)가 감소되어 상하악의 전후방적 부조화가 해소되었다. 2. 수술에 의해서 하악지의 배열(R3, R4)이 후방으로 재배열되었으며 교합평면(R5)은 후하방으로 회전되었다. 3. 수술후와 정상교합자의 비교결과 수술후에 골격성 III급 양상은 해소되었으나 두개저수준(R1, R2)에서는 차이를 보이고 있다. 4. 수술방법에 따른 비교결과 양악수술은 상악골의 길이(A4), 하악지의 배열(R3, R4), 교합평면의 각도(R5)에서 하악수술과 차이를 보였으나 두 그룹간의 차이는 크지 않았다. 한국인 골격성 III급 부정교합자의 특징을 살펴본 지난 연구에서 골격적 원인은 두개저의 후상방회전, 상악골의 후방위치, 하악지의 전방경사, 하악골체부의 길이증가였는데 본 연구 결과 실제 수술에서 개선되는 요소는 주로 하악지의 전후방 길이 감소, 상악골의 전진이기 때문에 상대적인 개선으로 골격성 III급 양상이 해소되었다고 볼 수 있다. 이러한 결과는 실제적인 수술부위가 상악골과 하악골의 일부에 국한되기 때문이다.

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.

Purpose: Orthognathic surgery is required in patients with severe skeletal disharmony and facial asymmetry, which results in functional and esthetic improvement. Recently, bimaxillary surgery has become generalized. Establishment of the occlusal plane among several other factors included in the surgery plan is a major consideration for the diagnosis and treatment plan and it is also an important factor for postoperative stability. Methods: In this study, we assessed postoperative stability of occlusal plane, B-point, and pogonion point on 20 patients who underwent two-jaw surgery in the Chosun Dental Hospital from 2000 to 2007. Preoperative and postoperative states and at least a one year postoperative follow-up were compared. Results: The postsurgical relapse volume of the occlusal plane to the SN plane and the FH plane was $-0.26{\pm}2.8^{\circ}$ and $-0.44{\pm}3.29^{\circ}$, respectively and after two-jaw surgery, the stability of occlusal plane was maintained. The horizontal relapse degree was $0.85{\pm}0.46$ mm and $0.76{\pm}0.48$ mm, respectively, and the vertical relapse degree was $1.16{\pm}0.36$ mm and $1.13{\pm}0.71$ mm of the B point and the Pogonion point at the time after minimal 1 year. Conclusion: The vertical relapse amount was shown to be slightly larger than the horizontal relapse amount.

Purpose: The aim of this study is the changes of upper respiratory airway space in patients with mandibular prognathism after 2-jaw orthognathic surgery in patients with skeletal classs III malocclusion. Method: We measured the lines between selected upper airway landmarks on lateral cephalometric x-ray films of skeletal class III 64 persons who had not been operated yet, were 6 months after operation. The test subjects were divided into 3 groups according to maxillary movement, as follows; maxillary advancement (MA) group, maxillary posterior impaction (MPI) group, maxillary posterior impaction and superior repositioning (MPI+MSR) group. Result: In this study, nasopharyngeal airway space in MPI+MSR group was significantly increased after operation (p<0.05). Oropharygeal and hypopharyngeal airway space in MA group and MPI group were significantly decreased after operation (p<0.05). From hyoid bone to anterior mandible point distance in MA group and MPI group were significantly decreased after operation (p<0.05). Conclusion: Oropharygeal and hypopharyngeal airway space were influenced more by mandibular set-back than maxillary movement. Maxillary movement surgery as well as mandibular setback surgery should be taken into consideration in order to minimize symptoms related to obstructive sleep apnea syndrome after operation.

안면 비대칭 중 가장 흔히 나타나는 하악 비대칭은 성장 중 골격성장의 비대칭을 유발하는 다양한 원인에 의해 발생한다. 안면 비대칭이 있을 경우 외모 뿐 아니라 저작과 기능에 지장을 줄 수 있다. 심한 골격성 악간관계 부조화가 있는 경우 보철치료만으로는 이상적인 교합관계를 형성하기 어려우며, 힘의 분산이 적절히 이루어지지 않아 자연치와 수복물의 수명이 단축될 수 있다. 악간관계 부조화로 인한 부정교합이 존재하여 치아의 수복 시 예후가 불량할 것으로 예상되는 경우 먼저 교정치료를 통한 악간관계의 개선을 위한 교합안정이 우선되어야 한다. 부조화가 심한 경우 기능적 및 심미적인 치료 결과를 위해 악교정 수술이 필요하며, 진단결과에 따라 편악 또는 양악수술이 시행된다. 상 하악 또는 안면 비대칭증의 악교정 수술시 이부 성형술이 동반될 수 있으며, 이는 하악골의 이부의 수직적, 횡적, 전후방적 위치를 외과적으로 변화시킴으로써 더욱 심미적인 안모개선을 얻기 위해 시행된다. 본 증례의 환자는 안모의 비대칭과 돌출된 하악 및 불량 보철물을 개선하고자 술전 교정을 시행한 뒤 상악 Le-Fort I 골절단술, 하악 시상분할골절단술, 이부 성형술(전방 4 mm), 우측 하악각 증대술을 시행하였다. 술후 교정치료를 진행하고 치관연장술 및 완전구강회복을 진행하였다. 보철 수복 완료 후, 환자의 평가와 객관적 결과로 만족할만한 결과를 얻었기에 이를 보고하고자 한다.

Considering the skeletal class III malocclusion that complains of mandibular prognathism, there have been some studies of the mandibular change for comparing the changes of pre operative with post operative state. Nowadays it is common to do the orthognathic 2-jaw surgery for the correction of the maxillary deficiency, the post operative stability and the esthetics. We compare and analyze the changes of soft tissue around the nose and the lip with the changes in the direction and the amount of maxilla. Patients who were diagnosed as maxillofacial deformity and received orthognathic surgery of both jaws at Yongdong Severance hospital from 2001 through 2003 were included in this study. Their lateral cephalograms were analyzed, and the post operative change of hard tissue and soft tissue were studied. Upon analyzing the preoperative cephalograms and 6 month post operative cephalograms, there were significant in the vertical change of Labialis superius(Ls) and Stomion(Stm) in soft tissue in relation to the vertical change of skeletal landmarks (Anterior Nasal Spine, Subspinale, Prosthion, Incision Superious). In addition, there were no significance in horizontal movement of the skeletal landmarks among groups. In terms of hard tissue landmarks, group 3(maxillary posterior impaction and advancement surgery group) showed significantly greater change in the vertical movement of Anterior Nasal Spine(ANS), Subspinale(A), Prosthion(Pr), and Incision Superious(Is) compared with other groups. In terms of soft tissue change, group 3 showed more significant change in the vertical movement of Ls and Stm. This study calculated the changes of the skeletal and soft tissue landmarks in order to act as a guide in planning and performing the surgery and as a reference in predicting the postoperative change of facial appearance.
