Le Fort III 골절단술을 이용한 중안면성장부전을 동반한 하악전돌증의 치험례

A CASE REPORT OF SURGICAL CORRECTION OF MANDIBULAR PROGNATHISM WITH MIDFACIAL DEFICIENCY USING LE FORT III OSTEOTOMY

저자 등은 경희대학교 구강악안면외과에 내원한 중안면성장 부전을 동반한 하악전돌증 환자의 치료에 있어 관상절개를 통한 Le Fort III 골절단술 및 Le Fort I 골절단술과 양측 하악지시상분 할골절단술을 2회법으로 시행하여 기능적 심미적으로 만족할만한 결과를 얻었기에 보고하는 바이다.

True midfacial deficiency is defined as a hypoplasia of various components of midface such as maxilla, orbit, zygoma and nasal bone. For treatment of these anomalies Le Fort III osteotomy and its modifications have been used traditionally. Le Fort III osteotomy is the method which advances maxilla with nasal bone and zygomatic bone at a time. At first midfacial osteotomy was introduced by Gillies to treatment of dentofacial deformity in 1950. In 1967 Tessier designed Le Fort III osteotomy according to Le Fort III midfacial fracture line and popularized to treat midfacial deficiency using coronal incision to appoach osteotomy sites. This is a case of patient who had mandibular prognathism with midfacial deficiency with severe discrepancy in maxillomandibular interrelation. First we performed Le Fort III osteomomy for zygomaticomaxillary advancement, and then carried out simultaneous two jaw surgery with Le Fort I osteotomy and BSSRO three months after first surgery.
