Purpose: This study is aimed for measuring the accuracy of simulation and prediction of our CASNOS protocol in adult patients treated with 2-jaw orthognathic surgery.
Methods: Adult patients with skeletal Class III malocclusions requiring 2-jaw orthognathic surgery were enrolled in the study. Three-dimensional imaging data of 1-month pre-surgical (T1) and 6-month post-surgical (T2) CT were compared to assess accuracy of CASNOS planning. The accuracy of CASNOS protocol was evaluated by calculating the differences in the positions of selected landmarks between simulated surgical and post-surgical 3D images parameters, including ANB, A-Nv, Pog-Nv, and the positions of selected landmarks (ANS, Point A, Point B, Pog) changes in horizontal (x-axis) and vertical (y-axis) directions. Overall geographical discrepancy of planning was assessed by superimposing the color mapping of T1 and T2 imaging.
Results: Thirty adult patients with a mean age of 20.6 ± 1.5 years (female/male = 18/12) were enrolled. The geographical changes of overall superimposition between the planned and post-surgical imaging was 0.60 ± 0.19 mm (range: 0.42-1.08 mm). The discrepancies between simulated and post-surgical ANB, A-Nv, Pog-Nv were 1.16 ± 0.36°, 1.25 ± 0.33 mm, 1.19 ± 0.35 mm, respectively. The deviations between simulated and post-surgical Point A and Point B positions were within 1 mm in horizontal and vertical directions.
Conclusion: The application of the pre-designed bony guiding splints of CASNOS protocol can allow surgeons to treat patients with craniofacial deformities precisely. CASNOS provides a novel approach for orthodontists and surgeons accurately remedying the patients with complex craniofacial discrepancies.

Objective: The aim of this study is to clarify the postsurgical stability of temporomandibular joints in skeletal class III patients treated with 2-jaw orthognathic surgery which was performed utilizing computer-aided three-dimensional simulation and navigation in orthognathic surgery (CASNOS) protocol.
Materials And Methods: 23 consecutive nongrowing skeletal class III patients with mandibular prognathism associated with maxillary retrognathism treated with 2-jaw orthognathic surgery between 2018 and 2019 were enrolled in this study. The surgery was planned according to the standardized protocol of CASNOS (computer-aided three-dimensional simulation and navigation in orthognathic surgery).

Purpose: This retrospective study evaluated the volume of blood loss and operative time associated with management of nongrowing patients with cleft lip and palate (CLP) using bimaxillary orthognathic surgery (OGS) designed by a three-dimensional (3D) computer-assisted simulation and navigation for orthognathic surgery (CASNOS) system.
Methods: This study included 53 skeletal Class III nongrowing patients with unilateral CLP who underwent bimaxillary OGS using either the CASNOS protocol (n = 30) or the traditional two-dimensional (2D) method (n = 23). The skeletal parameters of jaw-bone components, the levels of hemoglobin (Hb) and hematocrit (Hct) were measured before and after surgery.
