Combined Fronto-orbital Contouring and Orthognathic Surgery in Craniometaphyseal Dysplasia.

Plast Reconstr Surg Glob Open

December 2024

From the Department of Oral & Maxillofacial Surgery, São Leopoldo Mandic, São Paulo, Brazil.

Craniometaphyseal dysplasia is a rare congenital sclerosing skeletal dysplasia that presents with facial dimorphism and is clinically described by prominent supraorbital bridges, severe retrognathia, and respiratory problems. Fronto-orbital cranioplasty is necessary to achieve satisfactory aesthetic outcomes. The supraorbital arches were exposed to the nasal bone through coronal access, with the help of a saw and a wear drill, and osteotomy of the frontal and orbital regions with hyperostosis was performed.

Lipomas, the most common soft-tissue mesenchymal neoplasms in adults, are characterized by the proliferation of mature white adipocytes without cytologic atypia. Lipomas are rarely observed in the head and neck region. We present a case of resection and orthognathic surgical removal of an intramuscular lipoma of the mandible with involvement of the mandibular ramus and condylar head and neck.

: The current high standards in orthognathic surgery demand surgical solutions that are both ⁠ functionally ⁠ effective and aesthetically pleasing. Our approach offers one for enhanced stability, attractiveness, and nerve protection ⁠ with improved accessibility ⁠ in the majority of orthognathic scenarios ⁠ compared to an inverted L osteotomy. A case series is presented to illustrate the application and outcomes of HSSO, an optimised approach that combines the advantages of a transoral inverted L osteotomy with specific enhancements and increased versatility, ⁠ with accessibility and exposure similar to a BSSO.

Background: For the surgical treatment of oral cancer, it is sometimes necessary to expand intraoral access within the oral cavity. The "swing approach" that involves lip splitting of the mandible and temporary mandibular osteotomy and the "visor approach" that does not split the lower lip and mandible are mainly used. This study analyzed postoperative outcomes such as complications, recurrence rate, and survival rate by these two approaches.
