Modified Anterior Z Le Fort III Osteotomy.

Introduction: Surgery of the midface for non-syndromic patients with maxillo-malar hypoplasia exclusively has had many breakthroughs lately. The surgical techniques for midface surgery are varied and must be selected according to the patient's problem.

Purpose: The technique is a modification of the Z Osteotomy, the Modified Anterior Z Le Fort III Osteotomy (MAZLFIIIO), is used to correct posteroanterior midface deficiency of 6 mm at most.

Temporal Muscle Bipartition and Tripartition Transposition for Reconstructing the Orbital and Oral Empty Space in Mucormycosis of the Middle Third of the Face.

Background: Temporal muscle has great versatility to cover defects, caused by resections or large soft tissue losses of the middle facial third, has been used for more than 100 years. In the skin, the temporal muscle is transformed by the phenomenon called skin dermalization and mucolization in the oral cavity.

Purpose: This article shows how the temporal muscle is divided into two segments (bipartition) or three segments (tripartition) achieving a transposition of the muscle to cover large empty spaces caused by orbital exenteration or in maxilectomy.
