Estabilidad del tratamiento ortodóncico-quirúrgico de avance mandibular mediante osteotomía sagital bilateral de rama mandibular en pacientes clase II. Revisión narrativa / Stability of the orthodontic-surgical treatment of mandibular advancement through bilateral sagittal split osteotomy in class II patients. Narrative review

RESUMEN: Introducción: La anomalía esqueletal clase II posee un 16 a 22,5% de prevalencia mundial. Cuando estos pacientes se someten al avance mandibular mediante osteotomía sagital de rama mandibular pueden presentar un grado de inestabilidad postoperatoria evidenciándose como recidiva de éste. Objetivo: Describir la estabilidad del avance mandibular mediante osteotomía sagital bilateral de rama mandibular en pacientes clase II esqueletal. Material y método: Se realizó una búsqueda electrónica en las bases de datos PubMed, EBSCO, The Cochrane Library, Tripdatabase y Scopus mediante las palabras clave "mandibular stability", "skeletal stability", "mandibular advancement", "sagittal split osteotomy", "sagittal split ramus osteotomy", "class II", "class III" y "distraction osteogenesis", relacionadas entre sí con los términos booleanos AND, OR y NOT. También se incluyeron los términos MeSH "mandibular advancement" y "Sagittal Split Ramus Osteotomy". Paralelamente se realizó una búsqueda manual en las revistas AJODO, BJOMS, JOMS y EJO. Resultados y discusión: Se seleccionaron 29 artículos: 24 estudios observacionales analíticos, 2 revisiones sistemáticas y 3 ensayos clínicos aleatorizados. El avance mandibular mediante osteotomía sagital de rama mandibular es estable. No obstante, se debe tener en cuenta la existencia de múltiples factores pre e intraquirúrgicos que podrían generar recidiva del tratamiento.

ABSTRACT: Introduction: The class II skeletal anomaly has a 16-22,5% prevalence worldwide. When class II patients undergo mandibular advancement through Bilateral Sagittal Split Osteotomy (BSSO), they can present a postoperative instability, evidenced as a relapse. Objective: To describe the stability of mandibular advancement through BSSO in skeletal class II patients. Materials and method: An electronic search was performed in the databases PubMed, EBSCO, The Cochrane Library, Tripdatabase and Scopus using the keywords "mandibular stability", "skeletal stability", "mandibular advancement", "sagittal split osteotomy", "sagittal split ramus osteotomy", "class II", "class III" and "distraction osteogenesis", related to each other with the Boolean terms AND, OR and NOT. Also "mandibular advancement" and "Sagittal Split Ramus Osteotomy" MeSH terms were included. In parallel, a manual search in the journals AJODO, BJOMS, JOMS and EJO was performed. Results and discussion: 29 articles were selected: 24 analytic observational studies, 2 systematic reviews and 3 randomized clinical trials. Mandibular advancement through BSSO is stable. However, multiple pre and intraoperative factors that could cause a treatment relapse must be taken into account.

Influence of temporomandibular joint disc displacement on mandibular advancement in patients without pre-treatment condylar resorption.

The purpose of this study was to clarify the correlation between pre-treatment anterior disc displacement and mandibular stability after orthognathic and orthodontic treatment among patients with a skeletal class II malocclusion and without pre-treatment condylar resorption. Thirty-seven patients were included (7 male, 30 female). The mean length of follow-up was 6.76±3.06 years. Patients with condylar resorption before treatment were excluded. Magnetic resonance images and lateral cephalometric radiographs were taken before treatment (T0), after treatment (T1), and at follow-up (T2). Patients were classified according to the degree of disc displacement: -10-10° 'normal', 11-50° 'slight to mild', ≥51° 'moderate to severe'. Results showed the condyle moved posterosuperiorly after treatment, and then moved anteriorly to a more concentric location during the long follow-up period. Condylar movement was found not to correlate with disc displacement. The degree of disc displacement before treatment did not correlate with the post-surgical mandibular positional change in either the sagittal or vertical direction. To conclude, the mandibular bilateral sagittal split ramus osteotomy was stable in the long-term after orthognathic and orthodontic treatment. In the absence of pre-treatment condylar resorption, the degree of initial anterior disc displacement did not have a significant influence on the stability of mandibular advancement.

Comparison of mandibular stability after SSRO with surgery-first approach versus conventional ortho-first approach.

METHODS: Postoperative mandibular stability in the surgery-first (SF) approach and ortho-first (OF) approach in orthognathic surgery was retrospectively assessed using the lateral cephalo X-P in 38 patients with skeletal Angle Class III malocclusion who underwent sagittal split ramus osteotomy (SSRO). RESULTS: The postoperative mandibular relapse of the two groups observed from T1 (2 weeks after the surgery) to T2 (for the OF group, a year after surgery; for the SF group, the day orthodontic treatment was completed) was compared. The mean (SD) horizontal relapse at pogonion was 0.86 (0.92) mm in the forward direction in the SF group and 0.90 (1.09) mm in the forward direction in the OF group. No significant difference was found in the amount of horizontal movement between the two groups. On the other hand, the mean (SD) vertical relapse at pogonion was 1.59 (2.91) mm in the downward direction in the SF group and 0.14 (1.30) mm in the upward direction in the OF group, showing a significant difference in the amount of movement between the two groups. The degree of completion of the occlusion at T2 in the SF group was compared with that in the OF group by measuring OB, OJ, L1-occlusal plane angle, and interincisal angle. No significant difference was found between the two groups and the post-treatment occlusion was clinically favourable. CONCLUSION: Although the SF approach has several advantages for patients, the method of operation and fixation should be selected carefully to maintain postoperative mandibular stability.

Skeletal stability of mandibular setback following bilateral sagittal split osteotomy / 实用口腔医学杂志

Objective: To observe the postoperative skeletal changes of mandibular setback via bilateral sagittal ramus split osteotomy (BSSRO) with circummandibular wiring and maxillomandibular fixation. Methods: BSSRO was performed in 14 cases to setback the mandible. The patients were followed up for 6 months by clinical observation and examined with lateral cephalometric radiographs and Schuller's position radiographs before and after surgery. Results: According to the measured parameters the ralapse extent was 27.2%. Multiple regression analysis showed the magnitude of the setback significantly accounted for relapse (P
