Growth-related nasal stability following unilateral complete cleft lip repair: A comparison of the standard and modified rotation-advancement technique.

Background: Improving growth-related nasal stability is a critical goal of primary cleft lip repair. The purpose of this study was to evaluate the growth-related stability of the nose after unilateral complete cleft lip (UCCL) repair with standard rotation-advancement (RA) and modified rotation-advancement (MRA) techniques.

Material And Method: In this retrospective study, 52 non-syndromic (UCCL) patients were treated with a MRA technique, where a C-flap and a superiorly based advanced flap were used to lengthen and support the columella and nasal sill, and 48 patients were treated with a standard RA technique.

Condylar positional changes and remodeling following bimaxillary anterior segment osteotomy with and without Le Fort I osteotomy: a three-dimensional comparative analysis.

Objective: To evaluate 3D condylar displacement and long-term remodeling following the correction of bimaxillary protrusion by anterior segment osteotomy (ASO) with and without Le Fort I surgery.

Materials And Method: This retrospective study included 32 adults with bimaxillary protrusion who underwent ASO alone (group 1) or with concomitant Le Fort I osteotomy (group 2). Subject's computed tomography scans at basic (T0), immediate postoperatively (T1), and at 1 year or more follow-up (T2) were collected.

Three-dimensional radiographic assessment of different fixation methods stability after l-shaped osteotomy reduction malarplasty: A comparative retrospective study.

Background: Reduction malarplasty (RM) is a common facial contouring procedure among Orientals. Currently, fixation methods selection and placement vectors are controversial. Therefore, this study aimed to evaluate the effect of different zygomatic complex fixation methods on surgical outcomes stability after RM.

Three dimensional condylar positional and morphological changes following mandibular reconstruction based on CBCT analysis: a prospective study.

Objective: This study aimed to evaluate the condylar positional changes following mandibular reconstruction with preservation of the condylar head using Cone-Beam Computed Tomography (CBCT). Also, to assess joint space changes and the overall volumetric space compared to the preoperative status.

Methodology: This prospective study included 30 patients (60 joints) subjected to unilateral mandibular resection and reconstruction with preservation of the condylar head.

Cupid's Bow Leveling and Preservation of Lip Height and Width: A Modified Rotation-Advancement Technique.

Background: Several methods for cleft lip repair have been developed over time, with no clear method considered the standard. In the authors' department, the use of a modified rotation-advancement technique rather than the traditional rotation-advancement technique in unilateral complete cleft lip repair has increased over the past decade. This study aimed to determine which technique provides better outcomes.
