Abstract

The purpose of this study was to evaluate the nasal deviation in mandibular prognathism with mandibulo-facial asymmetry. There were 40 patients whose mandibular prognathism with/without facial asymmetry were treated with orthognathic surgery from March 2002 to October 2003. The Group A(n=20) had a mandibulo-facial asymmetry over 6mm menton deviation in cephalogram PA and the Group B(n=20) had a mandibular prognathism. The preoperative frontal photograph, cephalogram PA and three dimensionalcomputed tomography(divided in hard tissuse image and soft tissue image) of two group was evaluated NDA(nasal deviation angle) and MDA(mandibular deviation angle). The NDA was statistical difference between asymmetry Group A and symmetry Group B(p<0.01), and was deviated in affected side of asymmetry. The MDA were also statistical difference between Group A and Group B(p<0.01), however the measurements of MDA between the frontal photograph, 3D-CT and cephalogram PA were similar to each others. The low correlation of NDA between frontal photograph and cephalogram PA in Group A and B demonstrate that we couldn't assess nasal deviation in cephalogram PA. It could be concluded that patients with mandibulo-facial asymmetry have a nasal deviation and clinician must remember this fact when they assess and treat patients.
