Background : Maxillary hypoplasia refers to a deficiency in the growth of the maxilla commonly seen in patients with a repaired cleft palate. Those who develop maxillary hypoplasia can be offered a repositioning of the maxilla to a functional and esthetic position. Velopharyngeal dysfunction is one of the important problems affecting speech after maxillary advancement surgery. The aim of this study was to investigate the impact of maxillary advancement on repaired cleft palate patients without preoperative deterioration in speech compared with non-cleft palate patients. Methods : Eighteen patients underwent Le Fort I osteotomy between 2005 and 2011. One patient was excluded due to preoperative deterioration in speech. Eight repaired cleft palate patients belonged to group A, and 9 non-cleft palate patients belonged to group B. Speech assessments were performed preoperatively and postoperatively by using a speech screening protocol that consisted of a list of single words designed by Ok-Ran Jung. Wilcoxon signed rank test was used to determine if there were significant differences between the preoperative and postoperative outcomes in each group A and B. And Mann-Whitney U test was used to determine if there were significant differences in the change of score between groups A and B. Results : No patients had any noticeable change in speech production on perceptual assessment after maxillary advancement in our study. Furthermore, there were no significant differences between groups A and B. Conclusions : Repaired cleft palate patients without preoperative velopharyngeal dysfunction would not have greater risk of deterioration of velopharyngeal function after maxillary advancement compared to non-cleft palate patients.

Purpose: The aim of this sturdy was to assess the prevalence and change in pathologic findings in the maxillary sinus by using preoperative and postoperative cone-beam computed tomography (CBCT). Methods: The subjects included 83 patients with maxillary sinus abnormalities who underwent orthognathic surgery between January 2010 to December 2010. The CBCT analyses were classified according to the thickness of maxillary sinus membrane; Normal (membrane thickness<2 mm), mucosal thickening (membrane thickness ${\geq}2mm$ and <6 mm), partial opacification (membrane thickness>6 mm but not complete), total opacification, and polypoidal mucosal thickening. The diameters of the maxillary sinus ostium on the coronal cross-sectional view were also calculated. Results: Out of 166 maxillary sinuses in 83 patients, 42 (25.3%) maxillary sinuses before surgery and 37 (22.3%) maxillary sinuses after surgery showed abnormalities. A decrease in the diameters of maxillary ostium was observed after surgery (P<0.05). However, there was no significant difference in mucosal thickness both, preoperatively and postoperatively. Conclusion: The orthognathic surgery didn't deteriorate the maxillary sinus abnormaility. Despite the low prevalence of sinus complications in orthognathic surgery, all the patients should be informed of the possibility of sinusitis that could require the surgical intervention before surgery.

Maxillary deficiency, anterior cross bite, constriction of maxillary arch, malaligned teeth are frequently observed in patients with cleft lip and palate. Surgery and orthodontics, combined intervention are needed to correct maxillary deficiency. Distraction osteogenesis that currently used has many advantages like less relapse tendency, more advancement of maxilla, capable in growing patients. In case 1, 18 years old girl with BCLP had severe midfacial deficiency and multiple missing of teeth. LeFort I osteotomy, followed by maxillary distraction osteogenesis utilizing rigid external distraction device(RED) system, was performed. After a 6-day latency period, distraction proceeded at a rate of 1mm per day (at 1st week, 1.5mm/day). Total advancement was 19mm. The RED device left in place for the additional 4 weeks for consolidation. After the RED device was removed, face mask was applied with elastic traction for 5 weeks. After achieving acceptable facial appearance and occlusion, orthodontic appliance was removed. The results after 4 years follow-up was sustained pretty well without aggravation of velopharyngeal function. In case 2, 22 years old man with UCLP had severe midfacial deficiency and palatally erupted upper 2nd premolars due to arch length discrepancy, but the anterior segment of maxillary did not show constriction and crowding. patient had no arch width discrepancy, crowding was concentrated on premolar region. Segmental LeFort I osteotomy was performed. After a 6 - day latency period, using internal distraction device, distraction proceeded at a 0.5mm per day(at 1st week, 0.75 - 1 mm/day). Total advancement was 15mm. After internal distraction device was removed, face mask was applied with elastic traction for 4 weeks. After surgical-orthodontic treatment, facial appearance and occlusion was improved pretty good, and after 46 months follow-up the result was retained well.

Objectives: This study evaluates soft tissue changes of the upper lip and nose after maxillary setback with orthognathic surgery such as Le Fort I or anterior segmental osteotomy. Materials and Methods: All 50 patients with bimaxillary protrusion and skeletal Class II malocclusion underwent Le Fort I or anterior segmental osteotomy with backward movement. Soft and hard tissue changes were analyzed using cephalograms collected preoperatively and 6 months postoperatively. Results: Cluster analysis on the ratios shows that 2 lines intersected at 4 mm point. Based on this point, we divided the subjects into 2 groups: Group A (less than 4 mm, 27 subjects) and Group B (more than 4 mm, 23 subjects). Also, each group was divided according to changes of upper incisor angle (≥4°=A1, B1 or <4°=A2, B2). The correlation between A and B groups for A'/ANS and Ls/Is (P<0.001) was significant; A'/A (P=0.002), PRN/A (P=0.043), PRN/ANS (P=0.032), and St/Is (P=0.010). Variation of nasolabial angle between the two groups was not significant. There was no significant correlation of vertical movement and angle variation. Conclusion: The ratio of soft tissue to hard tissue movement depends on the amount of posterior movement in the maxilla, showing approximately two times higher rates in most of the midface when posterior movement was greater than 4 mm. The soft tissue changes caused by posterior movement of the maxilla were little affected by angular changes of upper incisors. Interestingly, nasolabial angle showed a different tendency between A and B groups and was more affected by incisal angular changes when horizontal posterior movement was less than 4 mm.

Osteochondroma is a common benign tumor of the axial skeleton, especially the distal metaphysis of the femur and proximal metaphysis of the tibia. However, it occurred rarely on the facial skeleton. The coronoid and condylar processes have been considered to be the most common sites of occurrence for osteochondroma of the facial skeleton. The first treatment of osteochondroma is condylectomy, whereas extirpation was done by excision with condyle salvage. Condylectomy presents decrease of vertical dimension, jaw deviation, malocclusion. So, reconstruction is need. Methods of reconstruction are as follows: no reconstruction, condyloplasty, discectomy, costochondral graft, discplication or coronoidectomy, eminoplasty, alloplastic spacer placement, Le Fort I level maxillary osteotomy, extraoral and intraoral vertical ramus osteotomy. This is a case report of a 28-year old woman who had facial asymmetry, malocclusion and temporomandibular joint pain. We obtained moderate functional and cosmetic results with surgical removal of the osteochondroma by condylectomy and concomitant reconstruction of condyle by vertical ramus osteotomy with sliding technique.

현대 사회에서 외상의 특성은 다발성 손상이 빈발하는 것이며 상악골절시 생명을 위협하는 다발성 전신손상이 동반되면 수술이 지연되어 골절부의 지연된 부정유합을 보일 수 있다. 또한 골절된 양상에 따라서는 관혈적 정복술의 적용여부가 고려되는데 특히 골절편의 분쇄가 심하면 수술시 골절부위의 이개 후 정상위치로의 이동이 어렵고 설사 골절편의 이동이 이루어졌다고 하여도 정상위치로의 고정이 용이하지 않을 뿐만 아니라 분쇄골절편의 상실량이 많아지면 골이식까지 시행해야 하는 등 외과적이술식의 적용에 많은 난관이 예상된다. 따라서 상악골절 후 통상 6주일 간의 시간경과가 없다면 오히려 상악골절편의 이동방향을 예측하여, 전방견인용 headgear 또는 headcap 을 사용한 교정적인 치료를 시도함이 바람직할 수도 있다. 더우기 reverse headgear를 이용한 치료법은 골절된 경우가 아니더라도 상악골의 전방이동에 유용함이 실험적으로나 임상적으로 입증된 만큼 이를 상악골절후 후퇴된 상악골의 전방견인에 적용할 경우 교정치료의 최대장애인 cortical bone의 연속성이 골절로 인해 끊어지고 섬유성 유착상태로 남게되어 교정력의 효과가 치아이동 뿐만 아니라 골편의 이동에 매우 유익하리라 사료된다. 이에 저자는 상악골적이 분쇄양상인 한 환자에서 headgear와 headcap을 이용한 교정치료법을 5개월간 적용해 양호한 결과를 얻었고, 골절양상이 분쇄형이 아닌 증례에서는 외상후 5주간 경과 되었지만 관혈적 정복술을 시행하여 정상교합을 회복했으며, 심한 두부 손상으로 6개월만에 의식 회복을 한 LeFort I, II, III, 환자에서는 두부방사선 계측학적 분석, 교합기 상에서의 모형분석, 전산화 단층촬영 검사 등을 시행한 후 새로운 골면에다 LeFort I -osteotomy with iliac bone graft를 시행해 정상교합 및 안모추형을 개선시켰기에 이를 보고한다.

This is a case report of orthognathic surgery for the correction of maxillary retrusion and mandibular protrusion. The summary and results are as follows, 1. The maxillary retrusion was corrected by LeFort I osteotomy. 2. The mandibular protrusion was corrected by sagittal split osteotomies in the rami. 3. And, for the correction of the discrepancy between max8llary and mandibular arches, the mandibular arch was widened by the midsymphyseal step osteotomy. 4. The ratios of horizontal changes of soft tissue to hard tissue at the points, Subnasale (Sn), Labrale superius (Ls), Labrale inferius (L9), and Supramentale (B) were 67.6%, 43.2$, 70.2% and 87.7%, respectively.

Skeletal and dental changes were examined in 38 patients of mandibular prognathism who been treated by a bilateral sagittal split osteotomy(SSRO) and internal fixation using titanium mini-screws. All patients were followed up for over 8 months after the surgeries, and postoperative cephalometric measurements were compared at 2 months and at 8 months. Linear measurements of the "Pog-most posterior screws" and angular measurementsts of "SN-Pog'were compared to figure out the change of bony fragments. The significancy of data were tested by unpaired T-test. The results were as follows : 1. The fixation screws were changed in cephalometric position as little as $0.32{\pm}2.51mm$ in SSRO and $0.15{\pm}1.00mm$ in SSRO & Le Fort I Osteotomy.(P<0.05) 2. Mandibular set-back over 5mm resulted in less stability of the fixation screws and higher relapse tendency. 3. The internal fixation using two screws along the inferior border and one on the superior ridge is considered to be very resistant to postoperative relapse of the repositioned bony segments.
