Objective. The objective of our study was to determine the incidence of postoperative complications associated with different kinds of genioplasties done with or without concomitant orthognathic surgeries. Materials and Methods. Patients in whom facial asymmetry was corrected by genioplasty with age ranging from 16 to 55 at the Department of Oral and Maxillofacial Surgery were included in the study. Patients with facial asymmetry due to congenital problems were excluded. Results. 59 patients were included, of which 38 were males and 21 were females with the age range of 16–55 (mean: 27.3729, Std. deviation: 4.70472). Advancement genioplasty was performed in 15.3%, reduction genioplasty was done in 16.9%, and advancement genioplasty with rotation was performed in 67.8% cases. In 28.8% cases, genioplasty was performed as an adjunct procedure with orthognathic surgery, and in 71.2% cases, genioplasty was performed alone. 3.4% patients developed infection, 8.5% had hematoma, and 6.8% had temporary numbness. Postoperative complications were seen more in men than in women. Correction of chin asymmetry by rotation/advancement showed the highest number of complications (84%). Conclusion. Temporary neurosensory disturbance of the inferior alveolar nerve is the most common complication that occurs after genioplasty. Patients shall be counselled preoperatively, and informed consent shall be obtained prior to surgery.

Plate System

Two second-generation PLLA/PGA bioresorbable osteosynthetic plate systems for oral and maxillofacial surgery are available in Japan. The two systems have different PLLA-PGA component ratios (RapidSorb®, 85:15; Lactosorb®, 82:18) and plate and screw shapes. We conducted a retrospective study to compare our clinical evaluation and examine the incidence of postoperative complications between the two plate systems. A retrospective survey was conducted in 148 patients (midfacial fracture/trauma (68.2%) and dentofacial deformity patients (31.8%); males (54.7%); median age, 37.5 years) treated using maxillofacial osteosynthetic plate systems. The complications included plate exposure (7.4%), infection, (2.7%), and plate breakage (0.7%). Multivariate logistic regression analysis showed a significant correlation between sex (female), plate system (Lactosorb®), number of plates, and pyriform aperture and periorbital sites of plate placement (p < 0.05). Additionally, the propensity score-adjusted model showed a significant correlation between Lactosorb® and postoperative complications (odds ratio 1.007 (95% confidence interval, 1.001–1.055), p < 0.01). However, the two plate systems showed a low incidence rate of complications, and the plate integration and survivability were similar using 2.0-mm or 1.5-mm resorbable plate regardless of the plate system. Our findings suggest that female sex and a greater number of plates are risk factors for postoperative complications, whereas pyriform aperture and periorbital plate placements reduce the risk.

ABSTRACT Aim The aim of this paper was to report a case of orthognathic surgery successfully done in a patient with multiple sclerosis. Background Multiple sclerosis (MS) is a chronic, progressive inflammatory disorder of the central nervous system affecting young adults, characterized by lymphocytic infiltration of the brain and spinal cord leading to demyelination and focal axonal damage. Clinically, MS patients present with reversible neurological dysfunction in the early stages, which progresses to irreversible neurological disability and deficit. Oral manifestations of MS include facial numbness or pain, neuralgias, facial paralysis, dysarthria and dysphagia. While dental treatment is not contraindicated in MS patients, it is, however, limited to preventive and supportive dental care. Case description A 23-year-old Saudi male patient with a diagnosis of MS since 2008 reported to the oral and maxillofacial surgery (OMFS) department for correction of dentofacial deformity. The patient was under follow-up with the neurology department and was being treated with interferon beta-1a. Following consent from the neurologist and the patient, a Lefort 1 segmental osteotomy was done under general anesthesia. The patient was stable throughout the surgical procedure and during the postoperative period. The patient was discharged upon complete surgical recovery and no acute exacerbations of MS were reported during the perioperative period. Conclusion Based on our observations, orthognathic and maxillofacial surgical procedures can be safely carried out in patients with MS, provided a strict perioperative prophylactic regimen for stress reduction and prevention of acute attacks of MS is adhered to. Clinical significance Due to the stressful nature of dental treatment and oral and maxillofacial surgical procedures, acute exacerbations of MS are very much likely. Hence, it is imperative that dental and oral surgical practitioners are aware of the manifestations of MS and are able to manage such patients with suitable treatment modifications.

Oral and maxillofacial surgery is largely a post-graduate subject. This chapter begins with a section on advanced trauma life support and goes on to include details of the diagnosis and management of facial trauma, orthognathic surgery, as well as head and neck surgery and reconstruction. Only basic aspects of this specialty have been included here as advanced techniques are beyond the scope of this chapter. However, this chapter provides enough information so as to ensure success for final year dental students but it can also be of use to those working in oral and maxillofacial units.

Tension pneumothorax is a life-threatening emergency that requires a high index of suspension and immediate intervention to prevent circulatory collapse and death. Only five cases of pneumothorax were described in the Oral and Maxillofacial Surgery literature. All cases were postoperative complications associated with orthognathic surgery. We report a case of intraoperative tension pneumothorax during a routine facial trauma surgery requiring emergency chest decompression. The possible causes, classification, and reported cases will be presented.

Tibial Bone

Autogenous bone grafts are the gold standard for reconstruction of atrophic jaws, pseudoarthroses, alveolar clefts, orthognathic surgery, mandibular discontinuity, and augmentation of sinus maxillary. Bone graft can be harvested from iliac bone, calvarium, tibial bone, rib, and intraoral bone. Proximal tibia is a common donor site with few reported problems compared with other sites. The aim of this study was to evaluate the use of proximal tibia as a donor area for maxillofacial reconstructions, focusing on quantifying the volume of cancellous graft harvested by a lateral approach and to assess the complications of this technique. In a retrospective study, we collected data from 31 patients, 18 women and 13 men (mean age: 36 years, range: 19–64), who were referred to the Department of Oral and Maxillofacial Surgery at the Servidores do Estado Federal Hospital. Patients were treated for sequelae of orthognathic surgery, jaw fracture, nonunion, malunion, pathology, and augmentation of bone volume to oral implant. The technique of choice was lateral access of proximal tibia metaphysis for graft removal from Gerdy tubercle under general anesthesia. The mean volume of bone harvested was 13.0 ± 3.7 mL (ranged: 8–23 mL). Only five patients (16%) had minor complications, which included superficial infection, pain, suture dehiscence, and unwanted scar. However, none of these complications decreases the result and resolved completely. We conclude that proximal tibia metaphysis for harvesting cancellous bone graft provides sufficient volume for procedures in oral and maxillofacial surgery with minimal postoperative morbidity.

Mandibular Third Molars

Extraction of mandibular third molars is a common procedure in oral and maxillofacial surgery. There are studies that simultaneously predict the extraction difficulty of mandibular third molar and the complications that may occur. Thus, we propose a method of automatically detecting mandibular third molars in the panoramic radiographic images and predicting the extraction difficulty and likelihood of inferior alveolar nerve (IAN) injury. Our dataset consists of 4903 panoramic radiographic images acquired from various dental hospitals. Seven dentists annotated detection and classification labels. The detection model determines the mandibular third molar in the panoramic radiographic image. The region of interest (ROI) includes the detected mandibular third molar, adjacent teeth, and IAN, which is cropped in the panoramic radiographic image. The classification models use ROI as input to predict the extraction difficulty and likelihood of IAN injury. The achieved detection performance was 99.0% mAP over the intersection of union (IOU) 0.5. In addition, we achieved an 83.5% accuracy for the prediction of extraction difficulty and an 81.1% accuracy for the prediction of the likelihood of IAN injury. We demonstrated that a deep learning method can support the diagnosis for extracting the mandibular third molar.
