The purpose of this study is to examine reproducibility of operation plan and 3-dimentional jaw movement patterns by comparing jaw position of STO with post-operative jaw position. Twenty patients with class III dental and skeletal malocclusion who were treated with Le-Fort I osteotomy and B-SSRO were reviewed. Lateral cephalometric radiographs were taken within two weeks before operation and two days after operation. Cephalometric radiographs were compared and analyzed with orthognathic computer program '$V-Ceph^{TM}$'. Post-operative maxillary advancement was insufficient compared to maxillary advancement through STO. Post-operative setback movement was over compared to mandibular setback movement through STO. But statistically this is not significant. Maxillary vertical location is insignificant on the whole. Especially post-operative maxillary clockwise rotation is significant compared to maxillary rotation through STO. Post-operative maxillary clockwise rotation tendency is generally observed in all patients. So surgeons and staffs must consider this tendency when operation plan is established ans operation is being performed. Using intra or extra oral marking points, face bow, and bite plate will make exact surgery possible.

Purpose: The purpose of this study is to evaluate the post-operative skeletal stability after surgical correction of patients with mandibular prognathism by bilateral sagittal split ramus osteotomy (BSSRO) and to evaluate the horizontal relapse tendency after the surgery. Methods: Twenty-six patients with Class III dental and skeletal malocclusion were selected for this retrospective study. Fifteen of them underwent BSSRO for mandibular setback and eleven of them underwent two-jaw surgery (Lefort I and BSSRO). In each patient, lateral cephalometric radiographs were taken pre-operatively, post-operatively within 1 week, and post-operatively after eight months. After tracing of the cephalometric radiographs, various parameters were measured. The analyses were done by linear measurement to evaluate the change in position of hard tissue B point, pogonion and mandibular plan angle by examination on lateral cephalograms. Results: The horizontal relapse rate was 27.1% at B point and 31.6% at pogonion in patients who underwent BSSRO. The horizontal relapse rate of the group where the amount of correction exceeded 10 mm was 25.69% at B point. Conclusion: There were no statistical differences on the magnitude of setback and direction of rotation of the mandible in mandibular stability. There were also no statistical differences between single mandibular surgery and two-jaw surgery for mandibular stability.

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.
