Objective To identify the long-term effects of clefts (intrinsic and functional) on craniofacial growth and to evaluate the possible association between the sizes of the cleft maxillary segment (intrinsic) and alveolar cleft (functional) and the craniofacial morphology in patients with unilateral cleft lip and palate (UCLP). Design Retrospective case-control study. Setting Sri Lankan Cleft Lip and Palate Project. Subjects Thirty unoperated adult patients with UCLP and 52 normal controls. Main Outcome Measures Maxillary dental cast was used to measure the sizes of the cleft maxillary segment and alveolar cleft. Cephalometry was used to determine craniofacial morphology. Results Patients with UCLP had shorter height of the basal maxilla, shorter posterior length of the basal maxilla, and less protruded basal maxilla at the zygomatic level than did control subjects. In patients with UCLP, the posterior height of the basal maxilla was related to the size of the cleft maxillary segment, and there was a tendency toward significant association between the anterior height of the basal maxilla and the size of the alveolar cleft. Conclusion The adverse effects of clefts on the growth of the maxilla in patients with UCLP are restricted to the basal maxilla in size. This growth inhibition is major in height and minor in length. The reduced posterior height of the basal maxilla in unoperated patients with UCLP might be primarily attributed to intrinsic effects, whereas the reduced anterior height of the basal maxilla might be attributed to functional effects.

Objective: To investigate the postoperative complication rates of LeFort 1 maxillary advancement surgery in cleft patients when performed by a single surgeon over a 5-year period. Design: A retrospective case note review of 79 cleft palate patients. Setting: All surgery was performed by a single oral and maxillofacial surgeon in a tertiary care center. Participants: All cleft palate patients over 17 years of age who opted for surgical correction of maxillary hypoplasia with a LeFort 1 between 2010 and 2015. Patients required full surgical and clinical records. Interventions: Complete surgical advancement of the maxilla ranging from 2.0 to 18.0 mm performed by conventional osteotomies (87%) or distraction osteogenesis (13%). Main Outcome Measure(s): Postoperative patient- and clinician-reported complications at set-interval follow-up appointments. Results: Twenty-one patients (26.58%) reported no complications; 11 postoperative complications were identified in the remaining cohort. Temporary paresthesia of the infraorbital nerve was the most common complication (53.16%) followed by infection (13.92%). Other complications included relapse (11.39%), maxillary instability (6.33%), velopharyngeal impairment (6.33%), nasal obstruction (5.06%), chronic sinusitis (3.80%), bony dehiscence (1.27%), gingival necrosis (1.27%), partial necrosis of the maxilla (1.27%), and loss of tooth vitality (1.27%). Conclusions: LeFort 1 maxillary advancement surgery in cleft palate patients is associated with a wide range of postoperative complications, most commonly temporary paresthesia of the infraorbital nerve. Detailed, informed consent is essential prior to surgery.

Aim of study
The aim of this clinical retrospective study is to evaluate the clinical outcomes of patients with transverse maxillary hypoplasia who underwent surgical assisted maxillary expansion (SARME) using a bone borne distractor in 2 different surgical centers.
Patients and Methods
This is a clinical retrospective cross‐sectional study of adult patients diagnosed with maxillary transverse hypoplasia and having had transpalatal distraction by SARME done in two surgical centers (Oral and Maxillofacial Surgery, The University of Hong Kong, Hong Kong and The Baruch Padeh Medical Center, Poriya, Israel) from January 2004 to December 2011. A total of 37 patients were identified. The mean age was 27.1. Each patient underwent a standard Le Fort I osteotomy with midline split with no mobilization under general anesthesia. A bone‐borne palatal distractor was fitted on the hard palate. The distractor was activated at a rate of 0.6mm per day following 5 ‐ 7 days of latency until the amount of expansion was reached according to plan. Occlusal radiographs and lateral cephalographs were obtained at pre‐expansion phase and regular postoperative intervals during the activation and consolidation period. Among the 37 patients, only 15 patients could be contacted by phone, mail or e‐mail and has agreed to participate in the cross‐sectional analysis. Clinical examination was performed and included the following: tooth vitality, tooth mobility, periodontal status and occlusion. Questionnaire was also given to patients to grade their experiences toward the treatment outcome.
Results
The mean transverse expansion achieved was 9.58mm. The TPD was removed from the patients in the ranged of 2 months to the longest 8 months (mean: 5.2 months). The distraction gap was gradually ossified by bone and then the teeth were aligned into the space achieving stable dental occlusion. No intra‐operative complications were recorded. Post‐operatively, 2 patients had to be re‐operated due to failure to activate the distractor. Others post‐operative complications encountered were pain, fixation screw loosening, insufficient distractor length, infection, asymmetric expansion and tooth migration into the distraction gap. These complications were well managed accordingly. Majority of the patients were satisfied with the treatment and will recommend it to others.
Conclusions
Correction of maxillary transverse hypoplasia using a transpalatal distractor can reliably achieve large bony expansion of the maxillary arch with few postoperative complications. published_or_final_version Dental Surgery Master Master of Dental Surgery

Mah, Michelle Clare. "Functional outcomes and long term complications following distraction osteogenesis of the maxilla and mandible: asystematic review." Thesis, The University of Hong Kong (Pokfulam, Hong Kong), 2013. http://hub.hku.hk/bib/B50639626.
Background
Distraction osteogenesis (DO) was first applied on the human craniofacial skeleton in 1992 by McCarthy et al.1 who performed lengthening of the mandible in patients with hemifacial microsomia and Nager’s syndrome. Further advances in this field have since then led to the widespread use of this modality for the treatment of numerous congenital and acquired craniofacial skeletal anomalies. In 2001, a review by Swennen et al2 concluded that up to year 1999, this form of treatment was gaining intense popularity but that the main drawbacks included insufficient data on long term results and relapse. A systematic review of the last decade on functional outcomes and long term complications following distraction osteogenesis of the facial skeleton is presented.
Methods
A structured systematic literature search, with predefined inclusion and exclusion criteria from relevant computer databases and journals were performed. The journals were evaluated and critically appraised by 2 reviewers separately in 3 rounds. Papers were categorized according to the level of evidence, the quality of methodology and the specific field of functional outcomes and long term complications. Results were then categorized according to the type of distraction movements, ie maxillary advancement and mandibular lengthening.
Results
A total of 42 papers comprising of 16 studies for maxillary advancement and 26 studies for mandibular lengthening were included in this review. Maxillary advancement was found to be beneficial in patients with cleft maxillary hypoplasia in terms of achieving aesthetic outcome but the risk for velopharyngeal insufficiency remains uncertain. The achieved maxillary advancement was stable if performed on adult patients while a recurrence of midface retrusion was noted if DO was performed on growing patients. Overcorrection was recommended in these cases to an estimated value of 20-50%. Mandibular lengthening was 99% successful in relieving respiratory obstruction in patients with isolated Pierre Robin Sequence (PRS) or syndromic micrognathic infants preventing the need for tracheostomy in the long term, and in 89% successfully decannulating infants with pre-existing tracheostomy. However, feeding and growth outcomes after airway obstruction was relieved remain unknown due to lack of sufficient evidence. Unilateral mandibular DO was successful in achieving aesthetic symmetrical facial balance in patients with hemifacial microsomia however a total loss of corrected distraction length was noted by the end of growth period if DO was performed during growth.
Conclusions
DO achieved stable results in terms of lengthening the maxilla and mandible but was also noted to cause restricted growth potential of the distracted bone. Hence, the benefits of performing DO during active growth should be weighed against the likely need for a second surgery due to a growth deficit of distracted bone and future surrounding bone growth. However DO in adults remains an alternative to conventional orthognathic surgery and choice of treatment should be patient centred. published_or_final_version Dental Surgery Master Master of Dental Surgery

Background
Maxillary defects subsequent to hemimaxillectomy have long been restored with a pedicled temporalis flap. Recently,the trend towards maxillary reconstruction using vascularized bone free flaps and soft tissue free flaps has been gaining popularity. However, the value in terms of functional rehabilitation of these surgical modalities remains unconclusive.
Objective
To ascertain and compare masticatory performance and quality-of-life in patients with surgically reconstructed maxillectomy Class 2 (subtype A) defects by vascularized bone free flaps, vascularized soft tissue free flaps and pedicled soft tissue flaps.
Methods
Eighteen patients divided into 3 groups (4 vascularized bone flap, 5 vascularized soft tissue flap, 9 pedicled soft tissue flaps) were evaluated for functional outcome and qualityof-life (QoL). All patients were objectively assessed using masticatory comminution test. Subjective evaluation was conducted using functional outcomes questionnaire and patient reported speech perception. Self image and body perception were assessed using Body Esteem Scale. Overall quality-of-life was assessed using University of Washington QoL questionnaires.
Results
Patients reconstructed with vascularized bone flaps and vascularized soft tissue flaps showed superior masticatory performance compared to patients reconstructed with pedicled soft tissue flaps. Speech, facial attractiveness and overall QoL were similar for all three groups.
Conclusions
Maxillectomy class 2 (subtype A) patients show comparable speech, facial attractiveness and quality-of-life levels after reconstruction with vascularized bone flaps, vascularized soft tissue flaps and pedicled soft tissue flaps. However, those reconstructed with pedicled soft tissue flaps achieved lowest masticatory performances amongst the three surgical reconstruction modalities. Thus, the choice of recontruction for maxillectomy class 2 (subtype A) defects should be guided by minimizing surgical time and long term morbidity given the apparent similarity in functional outcomes. published_or_final_version Dental Surgery Master Master of Dental Surgery

AbstractThe chapter reviews the history and technique of maxillary orthognathic surgical procedures and highlights the sequence of bimaxillary surgery. A maxillary surgical procedure and its modification can be employed to correct skeletal deformities of the maxilla. With presently available surgical techniques, the maxilla may be independently repositioned in three dimensions. Segmentalization of the maxilla in turn allows repositioning different portions in different three dimensional planes, when done under direct vision. The changes in the position of the maxilla also causes soft tissue changes of the lips, cheeks, and nose. Changes in the nasal complex after orthognathic surgery, with the exception of nasal width, are complicated, and cannot be predicted. Having listed a general guide, the authors reiterate that no dogma should be given regarding the sequence of maxillary or mandibular surgery. Any surgical decision must be made after in-depth planning, preparation, and flexibility. If this is done, sequencing will follow logically.The chapter also includes key considerations in orthognathic surgery viz., adjustment to the base of the Nose and ANS; effect of changing the inclination (slope) of the osteotomy cut; impacted / erupted wisdom teeth; preoperative/intraoperative difficulties and proper positioning. An in-depth account of nutritional support and dealing with complications rounds off the discussion.

AbstractFacial trauma is often associated with severe morbidity with respect to loss of function and disfigurement. The maxilla is arguably the most anatomically intricate structure of the face and blunt trauma due to interpersonal violence, motor vehicle accidents, gunshot wounds, industrial accidents and falls contribute to etiology of maxillary fractures. Fractures of the midface are often challenging to the maxillofacial surgeon, due to wide variety of patterns of the fracture, diagnostic challenges and treatment dilemmas. The basic tenet in the management of these fractures is to reconstitute the vertical and horizontal buttresses of the midface, thus reestablishing structure and function. This chapter gives a comprehensive overview on the diagnosis, management and treatment of fractures of the Maxilla.

AbstractSince past many years management of facial trauma has evolved greatly. To provide stable fixation various plating system have been developed. To reconstruct the chin and mandibles, craniofacial skeleton surgery and midface fractures, the maxillofacial plating system is designed. There are various forms of plates and screws for fixation of maxilla, mandible and midface including fractures of orbit and zygoma. They also involve plates for mandibular reconstruction after tumor resection. Different sizes and shapes of plates are available as per the needs.

Uncinectomy and middle meatal antrostomy (MMA) in the maxillary sinus surgery mainly affects the airflow pattern in this sinus. The aim of the present work was to analyze the effect of this surgery on the heating and humidifying function of the nose. A series of CT scan images of a healthy male volunteer was used and a computational model for the human nasal airway including nasal cavity and maxillary sinuses was developed. Then, uncinectomy and MMA was performed virtually on the CT images on a single nasal passage and associated maxillary sinus. The continuity, momentum, energy and moisture transport equations were solved numerically. In particular, a thermal model for evaluating the temperature and moisture distribution on the mucus surface covering the walls of the nasal airway was developed. A steady breathing flow rate related to the rest conditions was investigated, where different relative humidity levels for the ambient air were considered. The airflow pattern, temperature and moisture concentration contours for pre- and post-surgery cases were evaluated and their differences were discussed.

Review question / Objective: Which radiological factors associated with incomplete cytoreduction (gross residual disease) after cytoreductive surgery (CRS) for advanced ovarian cancer? Condition being studied: Findings of CT scan and discussion in the multidisciplinary tumor board meeting (MDO) are crucial to determine the therapeutic strategy for individual ovarian cancer patients. Preferably, patients undergo primary cytoreductive surgery (CRS) followed by adjuvant chemotherapy. However, when complete cytoreduction is not considered feasible, neoadjuvant chemotherapy followed by interval cytoreductive surgery and adjuvant chemotherapy is indicated. In patients with advanced stage epithelial ovarian cancer (EOC), maximal cytoreduction to no gross residual tumor (complete cytoreduction) is known to associated with the best overall survival.
