Objective: The present study aimed to assess the occurrence of trigeminocardiac reflex (TCR) during Le Fort I osteotomies.
Study Design: This case-crossover study included 25 Le Fort I osteotomy candidates without systemically compromising conditions. Mean arterial blood pressure and pulse rate values were recorded before downfracture (DF) (MABP1, PR1), during DF (MABP2, PR2), and after DF (MABP3, PR3).
