The author has evaluated the panoramic image clarity of the midfacial anatomic structures in dry skull according to the skull position. The radiopaque markers were attached to the anatomic structures: infraorbial rim, upper and lower borders of zygomatic arch, pterygomaxillary fissure, lateral pterygoid plate, pyriform aperture of nasal cavity, lateral wall of maxilla, orbital floor, infraorbital foramen, and nasal floor. Position of the skull were divided into four groups. standard, 25mm forward, chin-down, chin-up position. The results were as follows: 1. The pyriform aperture of nasal cavity, lateral wall of the maxilla, orbital floor, infraorbital foramen and nasal floor did net cast any discernible image. 2. Nearly all images of midfacial structures were blurred in the chin-up position. 3. The forward position provided good visualization of the maxillary sinus. 4. The chin-down position provided good visualization of the zygomatic arch, pterygomaxillary fissue, and lateral pterygoid plate.

Purpose: The common deformity after the correction of unilateral cleft lip nasal deformity is nasal asymmetry, and it is caused by the hypoplasia of the pyriform aperture. To correct this, many procedures have been applied, but still many problems are present. Authors performed the inlay and onlay insertion of porous high density polyethylene sheet(1 mm thickness $Medpor{(R)}$ sheet) in the hypoplastic pyriform margin of cleft side and obtained satisfactory results. Methods: 11 cases were performed and the mean follow up period was 15.1 months. Their mean age was 23.6 years. Under general anesthesia, bilateral pyriform margin was exposed. $Medpor{(R)}$ sheets in "match stick" like shaped were inlay inserted, and kidney shaped were onlay inserted fixating with two 6 mm titanium screws. After the surgery, the results was evaluated by photogrammetric analysis. On the basal view, the distance from the subalare and labiale superius' to the transverse baseline connecting the both cheilions was measured from the cleft side and the non-cleft side. Then, the postoperative symmetry was assessed by obtaining the cleft side against the non-cleft side as proportion index, defined as lateral and medial upper lip contour index. Results: There were 2 infections. The cause was because the inserted implant was too long and thus protruded to the base of nasal cavity. The lateral upper lip contour index was from 95.49 to 103.27, and medial upper lip contour index was from 90.92 to 100.49, it was statistically increased, and thus the symmetry was improved. However clinically mild depression remained at nostril floor. Conclusion: Authors performed porous high density polyethylene sheet inlay and onlay insertion for the hypoplasia of the pyriform margin in unilateral cleft lip nasal deformity. It was found that depressed pyriform margin and upper lip were corrected effectively except for the nostril floor, for which an additional soft tissue augmentation would be necessary. The inlay insertion has risk of protrusion, thus the guideline of the use of artificial prosthesis should be observed strictly.

Background The aims of alveolar bone grafting are closure of the fistula, stabilization of the maxillary arch, support for the roots of the teeth adjacent to the cleft on each side. We observed nostril base augmentation in patients with alveolar clefts after alveolar bone grafting. The purpose of this study was to evaluate the nostril base augmentation effect of secondary alveolar bone grafting in patients with unilateral alveolar cleft. Methods Records of 15 children with alveolar clefts who underwent secondary alveolar bone grafting with autogenous iliac cancellous bone between March of 2011 and May of 2012 were reviewed. Preoperative and postoperative worm's-eye view photographs and reconstructed three-dimensional computed tomography (CT) scans were used for photogrammetry. The depression of the nostril base and thickness of the philtrum on the cleft side were measured in comparison to the normal side. The depression of the cleft side pyriform aperture was measured in comparison to the normal side on reconstructed three-dimensional CT. Results Significant changes were seen in the nostril base (P=0.005), the philtrum length (P=0.013), and the angle (P=0.006). The CT measurements showed significant changes in the pyriform aperture (P<0.001) and the angle (P<0.001). Conclusions An alveolar bone graft not only fills the gap in the alveolar process but also augments the nostril base after surgery. In this study, only an alveolar bone graft was performed to prevent bias from other procedures. Nostril base augmentation can be achieved by performing alveolar bone grafts in children, in whom invasive methods are not advised.

Purpose: The Le Fort I osteotomy is a commonly performed maxillary procedure for dentofacial deformity. One of the risks of this procedure is major hemorrhage resulting from injury to the descending palatine artery. So it is very important to know the exact position of the descending platine artery. An increased understanding of the position of this artery can minimize the intra-operative bleeding while allowing extension of the bone cuts to achieve exact positioning maxilla. The aim of this investigation was to study the position of the descending palatine artery as it relates to the Le Fort I osteotomy. Methods and patients: Total 40 patients who underwent Le Fort I osteotomy in SNUDH OMFS were studied in this study. We measured the distance from the pyriform aperture to the descending palatine artery (DPA distance) using a ruler. We investigated the relationship between DPA distance, the distance from A point to the McNamara line on lateral cephalography and the patient's body height. Results: The average distances from the pyriform rim to the descending palatine artery were 35.3 mm on the right (range: $30{\sim}40mm$) and 33.7mm (range: $30{\sim}41mm$) on the left in males. Those in females were 33.4 mm on the right (range: $28{\sim}40mm)$ and 32.8mm (range: $27{\sim}38mm$) on the left. The significances between the distance the DPA distance, the body height and the distance from A point to McNamara line were not found. Conclusion: Injury to the descending palatine artery during Le Fort I osteotomy can be minimized by not extending the osteotomy more than 30 mm posterior to the pyriform aperture in mal, and 27 mm in female.

A wide variety of deformities can occur following repair of the cleft lip. Especially, cleft lip nasal deformities offer the severe psychologic, esthetic, and functional impairment. We must restore the deformities of alar cartilge, nasal tip, septum, columella, or pyriform aperture. The authors reconstructed the cleft lip nasal deformities using with the alar cartilage rearrangement, postauricular cartilage graft, and/or columellar lengthening. The 3 case reports are presented.

호흡곤란에 대한 적절한 대처는 의사로서 숙지하여야 할 가장 중요하고도 기본적인 개념 중의 하나이다. 상부 기도에 발생하는 여러 가지 임상적 상황은 흔히 흡기성 천명을 동반하는 호흡 곤란으로 나타나고, 이에 대해 흔히 기도 삽관이나, 기관절개술 등이 행해 지지만, 그 발생 원인에 대해서 감별점들을 숙지하지 않으면, 원발 질환에 대한 합리적인 치료 뿐만 아니라 응급상황에서 적절하게 기도를 확보하는 데에도 문제가 생길 수 있다. 후두 상부에 일어나는 기도폐쇄의 상황은 비강에서부터 인두와 성문 상부, 식도 입구부에 이르는 해부학적 위치에 발생하는 다양한 질환들에 의한다. 비강과 비인두에는 pyriform aperture stenosis, choanal atresia, lacrymal duct cyst, 또는 teratoma나 encephalocele과 같은 질환이 발생할 수 있다. 구강, 인두부에서는 다양한 종류의 안면골격의 이상이나 설거대증, 또는 설갑상선, 갑상설관낭종, 또는 유피종등이 설기저부에 발생하기도 하고, 흔한 이유로 심한 편도-아데노이드 비대가 심각한 호흡곤란을 일으키기도 한다. 특히 소아에서는 이물의 가능성도 항상 염두에 두어야한다 이와 같이 기도 협착의 위치에 따라서 임상적 표현 양상이 구별될 수 있고, 또 부위에 따라 다양한 질환이 감별되어야 하므로 발생 위치에 따른 각 질환의 이해가 적절한 기도의 관리를 위해서 필수적이다.

Congenital facial cleft is a rare entity and appears along by the line of different processes of the facial development. An isolated cleft of the nose has been reported not often in the literature. We treated a patient with an isolated nasal cleft associated with undefined cranial anomaly. On 3D CT scan was seen a bony cleft traversing the pyriform aperture lateral to the anterior nasal spine. The nasal septum and frontal process of the maxilla were intact. There also was found bilateral bony defects in the frontal bone and bilateral frontal boss. The nasal cleft and frontal defect and boss were corrected by two stages: anterior two-third of the cranial vault with bilateral frontal boss was remodeled at the age of two years and the nasal cleft was repaired with a local rotation flap at age 3.

Objective: A three-dimensional-printed individual titanium plate was applied for maxillary protraction to eliminate side effects and obtain the maximum skeletal effect. This study aimed to explore the stress distribution characteristics of sutures during maxillary protraction using individual titanium plates in various directions and locations. Methods: A protraction force of 500 g per side was applied at forward and downward angles between 0° and 60° with respect to the Frankfort horizontal plane, after which the titanium plate was moved 2 and 4 mm upward and downward, respectively. Changes in sutures with multiple protraction directions and various miniplate heights were quantified to analyze their impact on the maxillofacial bone. Results: Protraction angle of 0-30° with respect to the Frankfort horizontal plane exhibited a tendency for counterclockwise rotation in the maxilla. At a 40° protraction angle, translational motion was observed in the maxilla, whereas protraction angles of 50-60° tended to induce clockwise rotation in the maxilla. Enhanced protraction efficiency at the lower edge of the pyriform aperture was associated with increased height of individual titanium plates. Conclusions: Various protraction directions are suitable for patients with different types of vertical bone surfaces. Furthermore, when the titanium plate was positioned lower, the protraction force exhibited an increase.
