Recently, sagittal split ramus oseotomy and intraoral vertical ramus osteotomy have been commonly performed for the correction of mandibular prognathism, occurred to abundant oriental people. Many authors have studied the soft tissue change after orthognathic surgery, especially between mandibular hard tissues and soft tissue of lower lip, but the study of upper lip change is comparatively little. Therefore, we studied the 12 patients, operated only sagittal split ramus osteotomy without genioplasty or maxillary osteotomy in department of oral and maxillofacial surgery, Hanyang university hospital from 1996. 1. 1. to 1998. 7. 20. Preoperative and postoperative cephalometric view was measured to know the change of upper lip position and shape after mandibular setback. The result were obtained as follows. 1. The ratio of upper lip change amount to lower incisor horizontal movement was 15.1%. 2. The ratio of lower facial profile between Sn-Stm and Stm-Mes was changed from 1 : 2.352 to 1 : 2.069 after operation. 3. Post-operative upper lip was flattened 72.4% compared with pre-operative one. 4. The vermilion zone of the upper lip increased 56 % horizontally, 5.8% vertically after operation. 5. The vermilion zone ratio of the lower lip to the upper lip was changed from 1 : 1.253 to 1 : 1.348. 6. The distance between esthetic line and Ls was changed from -3.958mm to -1.15mm.

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.

Background: The purpose of the present study was to investigate the differences in the position and shape of the anterior loop of the inferior alveolar nerve (ALIAN) in relation to the growth pattern of the mandibular functional subunit. Methods: The study was conducted on 56 patients among those who had undergone orthognathic surgery at the Gangnam Severance Hospital between January 2010 and December 2015. Preoperative computerized tomography (CT) images were analyzed using the Simplant OMS software (ver.14.0 Materialise Medical, Leuven, Belgium). The anterior and inferior lengths of ALIAN (dAnt and dInf) and each length of the mandibular functional subunits were measured. The relationship between dAnt, dInf, and the growth pattern of the mandibular subunits was analyzed. Results: The length of the anterior portion of ALIAN (dAnt) reached 3.34 ± 1.59 mm in prognathism and 1.00 ± 0.97 mm in retrognathism. The length of the inferior portion of ALIAN (dInf) reached 6.81 ± 1.33 mm in prognathism and 5.56 ± 1.34 mm in retrognathism. The analysis of Pearson's correlation coefficiency on all samples showed that the lengths of functional subunits were positively correlated with the loop depth. The length of the symphysis area in prognathic patients was positively correlated with the anterior loop depth (p = 0.005). Conclusions: Both the anterior and inferior length of ALIAN are longer in prognathic patients. Especially, it seems to be associated with the growth of the symphysis area.

Orthognathic surgery of the mandibular prognathism and the retrognathism is tend to be performed on the mandibular ramus to prevent inferor alveolar nerve injuries. The purpose of this study is to find a safe and accurate reference point on mandibular ramus for orthognathic surgery by comparative anatomical study of dentofacial deformity patients. We use 38 Korean Cadavers with normal occlusion(Group 1), 3-dimensional simulation of computerized tomogram of 23 patients with retrognathism (Group 2), 27 patients with mandibular prognathism (Group 3). Following results are obtained : 1. The maximum thickness of the mandibular ramus is $8.78{\pm}1.15mm$ for Group 2, $7.61{\pm}1.26mm$ for Group 1, $6.95{\pm}0.82mm$ for Group3 respectively (P=0001). The minimum thickness is $5.51{\pm}1.08mm$ for Group 1, $5.06{\pm}0.40mm$ for Group 2, $4.56{\pm}0.78mm$ for Group3, respectively (p=0.0001). But, the thickness at the level of 5mm above the lingular is $0.78{\pm}0.65mm$ for Group 2, $5.63{\pm}1.28mm$ for Group 1, $5.32{\pm}0.91mm$ for Group 3, respectively. There is no significant difference between these groups(P=0.0510). 2. The horizontal location from the midwaist point to lingular is $0.18{\pm}1.57mm$ for Group 1, $0.69{\pm}1.33mm$ for Group 2, $0.66{\pm}1.66mm$ for Group 3, and there is no significant difference between these groups(p=0.0835). But the vertical location from the midwaist point to lingular is $1.45{\pm}2.64mm$ for Group 1, $0.63{\pm}1.44mm$ for Group 2, $0.34{\pm}1.81mm$ for Group 3, and there is significant difference between these groups(p=0.0030). 3. The horizontal location from the midwaist point to mandibular foramen is $0.29{\pm}1.75mm$ for Group 1, $0.63{\pm}1.44mm$ for Group 2, $0.34{\pm}1.81mm$ for Group 3, and there is no significant difference between these groups(p=0.5403). But the vertical location from the midwaist point to mandibular foramen is $-3.33{\pm}4.43mm$ for Group1, $-4.79{\pm}2.26mm$ for Group 2, $-6.06{\pm}2.99mm$ for Group 3, and there is significant difference between these groups(P=0.0001). 4. The horizontal length from the disto-buccal cusp tip of mandibular second molar to lingula is $30.97{\pm}4.17mm$ for Group 3, $28.29{\pm}2.65mm$ for Group 1, $25.48{\pm}0.77mm$ for Group 2 (p=0.0000), and also vertical length is $7.72{\pm}3.22mm$ for Group 3, $6.38{\pm}1.83mm$ for Group 1, $5.89{\pm}2.30mm$ for Group 2 (P=0.0014). 5.

Malignant hyperthermia is a catastrophic, hypermetabolic syndrome that arises in susceptible individuals when they are exposed to certain inhalational anesthetics or muscle relaxants. It is characterized by hyperthermia, tachycardia, acidosis, and muscle rigidity. It has been noted that the majority of cases of malignant hyperthermia are fatal unless early diagnosis and treatment are performed. We experienced a 24 year old male Malignant hyperthermia presented for orthognathic surgery under $O_2-N_2O$-sevoflurane anesthesia without succinylcholine. Two half hours after induction, tachycardia developed and was followed by unstable blood pressure and hyperpyrexia. Anesthesia was terminated and vigorous emergency treatment was attempted. The patient was treated by the intravenous administration of dantrolene sodium. The diagnosis of an acute malignant hyperthermia reaction by clinical criteria can be difficult because of the nonspecific nature and variable incidence of many of the clinical signs and laboratory findings. So the malignant hyperthermia clinical grading scale is recommended for use as an aid to the objective definition of this disease. This clinical grading system provides a new and comprehensive clinical case definition for the malignant hyperthermia syndrome. We recently encountered a case of delayed malignant hyperthermia during sevoflurane anesthesia that was successfully treated by the intravenous administration of dantrolene sodium. In conclusion, exposure to sevoflurane should be avoided in patients thought to be susceprible to malignant hyperthermia.

The sagittal split osteotomy of the mandibular ramus is a common procedure which has been used in the correction of mandibular deformities for a few decades. Although the technical improvements have increased the reliability and stability of SSRO procedure, the postoperative relapse is imperative and clinically more significant than any other complication. One of the major causes of the relapse is due to the displacement of the proximal segment during SSRO procedure, which is well documented in the literature. Therefore it is important to preserve the original position of the proximal segment during SSRO proced and maxillofacial fixation period. In the case of mandibular asymmetry, if one side of mandible is advanced and the other side of mandible is setback during SSRO procedure, the proximal segment in the advancement site will rotate laterally and the proximal segment in the setback site will rotate medially. For the prevention of the lateral rotation or flaring of the proximal segment in the advancment site. we deliberately fracture the posterior protion of the distal segment in green-stick fashion during SSRO procedure, and there is no need to fix the fractured lingual segment. We fix the two osteotomized bony segments in the buccal cortex area rigidly with adjustable monocortical plates and screws. During SSRO procedure the lingual fracture technique was applied to nine patients with severe mandibular asymmetry who underwent orthognathic surgery in our hospital since march, 1992. These clinical experiencies enable us to find the lingual fracture technique has the following advantages. 1. The proximal segment is displaced minimally. 2. The osteotomized bony segments are contacted intimately. 3. The postoperative relapse and the healing period are decreased.

With the increasing esthetic requirement in orthognathic surgeries, midfacial corrective surgeries were developed to improve the paranasal depression. Augmentation with autogenous bones has long been the standard in facial reconstruction, however limited graft availability, donor site morbidity, and difficulties in 3-dimensional shaping were led to limited use. Porous high density polyethylene$(Medpor{(R)})$ was introduced in the 1970s as an alloplastic implants. It can be used in various size and shapes, and shortend operation time. The purpose of this study is to determine, by means of cephalometrics, the degree of long term stability and gaining of the overlying soft tissue thickness. The results were as followings : 1. There was no evidence of foreign body reaction, infection, and tissue necrosis. 2. $(Medpor{(R)})$ implants had an advantage of clinical use ; easy to contour and adapt to obtain a precise 3-dimensional construction. 3. Cephalometric study of 16 cases of paranasal augmentation revealed an overall increase of soft tissue thickness of approximately 82.1% in 6-months following. 4. The successful results could be obtained under the aseptic handling.

Bone healing plays an important role in orthognathic and craniofacial surgery. Bone tissue repair and regeneration are regulated by an array of growth and morphogenetic factors. Bone formation and remodeling require continuous generation of osteoprogenitor cells from bone marrow stromal cells, which generate and respond to a variety of growth factors with putative roles in hematopoiesis and mesenchymal differentiation. In this study, the efficacy of a single application of hepatocyte growth factor to promote bone regeneration in 5-mm experimental calvarial defects of adult male rats was assessed histologically and immunohistochemically. The result of the experimental site were compared with those of the contralateral contral side. None of the control and experimental bone defects demonstrated complete bone closure. Bone regeneration was found close th the margine and central part of the defects. At 1, 2 weeks, there were found much significant cellural mitotic activity and many inflammatory cells and osteoblasts on the experimental site than control site. At 4, 6 weeks, new bone apposition was founded in both site but, more apposition was seen at experimental site. At 8, 12 weeks, also, some differences was found that more apposition of new bone and collagen fiber was seen on experimental site. Our results have some possibility that HGF do a early positive role to repair the bone defect. More study will be needed.
