Klippel-Feil syndrome is characterized by congenital fusion of two or more cervical vertebrae, a low hair line at the back of the head, restricted neck mobility, and other congenital anomalies. We report a 16-year-old young man with Klippel-Feil syndrome, Sprengel deformity of the right scapula, thoracic kyphoscoliosis, and mandibular prognathism with an anterior open bite. He was treated with orthodontic treatment and maxillofacial surgery. An anticipated difficult airway due to a short neck with restricted neck movements and extrinsic restrictive lung disease due to severe thoracic kyphoscoliosis increased his anesthesia risk. Due to his deviated nasal septum and contralateral inferior turbinate hypertrophy, we chose awake fiber optic orotracheal intubation followed by submental intubation. Considering the cervical vertebral fusion, he was carefully positioned during surgery to avoid potential spinal injury. He recovered well and his postoperative course was uneventful.

The purpose of this study was to compare the soft tissue movements in facial profile predicted by a computer package with those that had actually accured following a sagittal split ramal osteotomy. The reliability of predicting the results of orthodontic surgical treatment was analysed. The study was based on the serial records of 30 consecutive patients who had been treated by means of a sagittal split ramal osteotomy. The serial lateral cephalometric radiographs used for the study were taken at the following stages: immediate preoperative : immediate postoperative : 6 months postoperative. A superimposition T1, T2-3 was generated to allow visual comparision. The results can be considered in relation to four important parts of the facial profile :the nose, upper lip, lower lip, and chin. The nose & Upper lip:The amount of movement of the upper lipwas not badly predicted for the average case. The lower lip: There was a significant trend over the whole sample for vertical positionof the lower lip to be less well predicted. The chin: The soft tissue movements of the chin were well predicted.

Objective: To examine the accuracy of computer-aided intraoperative navigation (Ci-Navi) in bimaxillary orthognathic surgery by comparing preoperative planning and postoperative outcome. Methods: The study comprised 45 patients with congenital dentomaxillofacial deformities who were scheduled to undergo bimaxillary orthognathic surgery. Virtual bimaxillary orthognathic surgery was simulated using Mimics software. Intraoperatively, a Le Fort I osteotomy of the maxilla was performed using osteotomy guide plates. After the Le Fort I osteotomy and bilateral sagittal split ramus osteotomy of the mandible, the mobilized maxilla and the distal mandibular segment were fixed using an occlusal splint, forming the maxillomandibular complex (MMC). Real-time Ci-Navi was used to lead the MMC in the designated direction. Osteoplasty of the inferior border of the mandible was performed using Ci-Navi when facial symmetry and skeletal harmony were of concern. Linear and angular distinctions between preoperative planning and postoperative outcomes were calculated. Results: The mean linear difference was 0.79 mm (maxilla: 0.62 mm, mandible: 0.88 mm) and the overall mean angular difference was 1.20°. The observed difference in the upper incisor point to the Frankfort horizontal plane, midfacial sagittal plane, and coronal plane was < 1 mm in 40 cases. Conclusions: This study demonstrates the role of Ci-Navi in the accurate positioning of bone segments during bimaxillary orthognathic surgery. Ci-Navi was found to be a reliable method for the accurate transfer of the surgical plan during an operation.

Purpose: The purpose of this study was to compare the changes in the pharyngeal airway space, tongue and hyoid bone positions according to the orthognathic surgical methods of mandibular prognathism. Methods: The subjects included 30 patients (16 males, 14 females) with the skeletal class III malocclusion. Group 1 (10 patients) underwent bilateral sagittal split ramus osteotomy (BSSRO) only; group 2 (10 patients) underwent BSSRO with genioplasty; and group 3 (10 patients) underwent BSSRO, Le Fort I osteotomy. We measured the lines between the selected upper air way, hyoid bone and tongue landmarks on the lateral cephalometric x-ray films of skeletal class III. The measurements were made preoperation, within 1 week after the operation, 3~6 months after the operation and 1 year after the operation. We compared and analyzed the measurements with matched paired t-test and independent samples t-test. Results: There were no postoperative changes in the nasopharyngeal airway space in group 3. The measurements of group 3 also increased during the follow-up period as compared to the preoperative measurements. In group 1, 2 and 3, the immediate postoperative oropharyngeal and hypopharyngeal airway spaces were decreased. In the following period, the hypopharyngeal airway space returned to the preoperative positions, but the oropharyngeal airway space was not significantly changed. The upper and lower tongue was posteriorly repositioned immediately after the surgery. During the follow-up period, the lower tongue position returned to the preoperative position, and the upper tongue position was not significantly changed. Immediately after the surgery, the B point was moved to the posterior position, and a slight anterior advancement was found in the follow-up period. Conclusion: Patients who received the mandibular setback surgery showed a decrease in the posterior airway space, and those who underwent maxillary advancement showed a significant increase of the nasopharyngeal airway space, which remained stable during the evaluation period. The change of the airway space, position of the hyoid bone and tongue did not differ according to the presence or absence of genioplasty.

Purpose: This study was performed to evaluate three-dimensional positional change of the condyle using 3D CT after bilateral sagittal split ramus osteotomy (BSSRO) in skeletal class III patients. Patients and methods: Nine patients who underwent BSSRO for mandibular set-back in skeletal class III malocclusion without facial asymmetry were examined. Miniplates were used for the fixation after BSSRO. 3-D CT was taken before, immediately after, and 6 months after undergoing BSSRO. After creating 3D-CT images using V-works $4.0^{TM}$ program, axial plane, coronal plane, & sagittal plane were configured. Three dimensional positional change, from each plane to the condyle, of the nine patients was measured before, immediately after, and 6 months after undergoing BSSRO. Results: 1. The mean value of mandibular set-back for nine mandibular prognathism patients was 7.36 mm (${\pm}\;2.42\;mm$). 2. In the axial view, condyle is rotated inward immediately after BSSRO (p < 0.05), comparing with preoperative but outward 6 months after BSSRO comparing with postoperative (p < 0.05). 3. In the axial view, condyle is moved laterally immediately after BSSRO (p < 0.05), comparing with preoperative but regressed 6 months after BSSRO comparing with preoperative (p > 0.05). 4. In the frontal & coronal view, there is changed immediately after and 6 months after BSSRO, comparing with preoperative but no statistical difference. Conclusion: These results indicate that three-dimensional positional change of the condyle in skeletal class III patients is observed lateral displacement & inward rotation immediate after BSSRO, but the condyle in 6 months after BSSRO tends to regress to preoperative position.

BACKGROUND. Mandibular displacement is a common complication of condylar fracture. In the mandibular displacement due to condylar fracture, it is difficult to restore both esthetics and function without using orthognathic surgery. CASE DESCRIPTION. This clinical report described a full mouth rehabilitation in the patient with bilateral condylar fractures and displaced mandible using bilateral sagittal split ramus osteotomy (BSSRO) and simultaneous dental implant surgery. Mandibular position was determined by model surgery through the diagnostic wax up and restoration of fractured teeth. The precise amount of the mandibular shift can be obtained from the ideal intercuspation of remaining teeth. CLINICAL IMPLICATION. Mandibular displacement by both condylar fractures can be successfully treated by orthognathic surgery. Determination of occlusal plane and visualization from diagnostic wax up are mandatory for mandibular repositioning of model surgery. Stable occlusion and regular recall check up are needed for long-term outcome.

A 31-year-old woman with hemifacial microsomia presented to the Department of Oral and Maxillofacial Surgery, Seoul National University Dental Hospital. The patient was previously treated with distraction osteogenesis device to elongate right maxilla and mandibular ramus. But, the result was not satisfactory, to correct residual facial asymmetry due to hemifacial microsomia we planned costochondral graft for reconstruction of ramus and condyle, Le Fort I osteotomy and sagittal split ramus osteotomy for facial asymmetry. The right mandibular condyle and ramus was reconstructed with right eleventh costochondral graft via submandibular approach. Using costochondral graft and orthognathic surgery the facial asymmetry in hemifacial microsomia patient was corrected. 1-stage treatment consists of costochondral graft and orthognathic surgery can achieve function and esthetics at the same time, is timesaving to both patient and surgeon.

본 저자는 하악지시상분할법이 측두하악관절장애와 관련되어 교합의 개선과 과두의 위치적변화에 어떤영향을 미치는가에 관해 연구하고자하여 다음과 같은 결과를 얻었다. 측두하악관절증상은 약 80%에서 개선되었으며 이는 아마도 부정교합의 개선으로 일어난 것이 아닌가 생각된다. 하악지 시상분할술에 있어 측두하악관절의 구조적 변화가 야기되는데 이것이 관절의 기능에 어떤 변화를 주어 측두하악관절증상과 관련해서 발생되는 것으로 추정되고 단기 추적조사와 비교해 볼 때 장기추적조사 결과 하악두위치변화에도 불구하고 Range of adaptation이 환자 개개인에 존재하는 것이 아닐까 생각된다. 이와 같은 결과를 종합해볼 때 경미한 측두하악관절증상을 동반한 하악전돌증환자에서 악교정수술을 시행함에 있어 개인의 하악두의 위치를 지켜주어 부정교합의 개선과 정상적인 관절기능을 유지시켜주는 것이 회귀성향과 관련하여 중요한 요소가 아닌가 생각되며 회귀성향과 하악두의 위치관계 또 측두하악의 증상등을 연관하여 더 진행된 연구가 필요하리라 사려된다.

The purpose of this study was to investigate the positional changes of the mandibular condyles after orthognathic surgery In patients with severe skeletal Class III malocclusion. This study was based on 21 patients who had received bilateral sagittal split osteotomy for mandibular setback. Among them 14 were fixated non - rigidly (W group), and 7 were fixated rigidly (R group). After submental vertex view analysis, each subject was given the T.M.J. Tomogram in both centric occlusion and centric relation immediate before, $4\~6$ weeks after and more than 6 months after surgery. The anteroposterior and vertical changes between each time interval were measured and analyzed statistically. Following results were obtained. 1. There was no significant difference between right and left condyles in their anteroposterior and vertical changes of the condylar position. 2. In anteroposterior changes of condylar position of the wire fixation group, the condyles were moved anteriorly 4-6 weeks after surgery, and then the pattern of reestablishment to their preoperative position was observed more than 6 months after surgery. In the rigid fixation group, there was no significant difference in any observation periods of centric occlusion and centric relation. 3. In vertical changes of condylar position of the wire fixation group. the condyles were moved inferiorly 4-6 weeks after surgery, and then the pattern of reestablishment to their preoperative position was observed more than 6 months after surgery. In the rigid fixation group, the condyles were moved inferiorly 4-6 weeks after surgery, and then the pattern of reestablishment to their preoperative position was observed more than 6 months after surgery in centric occlusion only.
