Bioabsorbable plate and screw fixation in orthognathic surgery.
This paper describes the author's 10-year experience in using resorbable polymeric plates and screws in select cases of orthognathic surgery as well as a comprehensive review of all published reports on this technology for similar applications.
متن کاملTitanium Plate Fixation for Sternal Dehiscence in Major Cardiac Surgery
BACKGROUND Sternal dehiscence is one of the most troublesome complications following cardiac surgery. Treatment failure and consequent lethal outcomes are very common. The aim of this study was to evaluate titanium plate fixation as a treatment for sternal dehiscence following major cardiac surgery. MATERIALS AND METHODS Between 2010 and 2012, 17 patients underwent sternal reconstruction usin...
متن کاملMiniscrews versus surgical archwires for intermaxillary fixation in adults after orthognathic surgery
OBJECTIVE We compared the skeletal and dental changes that resulted from the use of two methods of intermaxillary fixation (IMF)-miniscrews and surgical archwire-in 74 adult patients who had Class III malocclusion and were treated with the same orthognathic surgical procedure at a hospital in Korea. METHODS All the patients underwent Le Fort I osteotomy and bilateral sagittal split ramus oste...
متن کاملBiocompatibility evaluation of a new bioresorbable pin for membrane fixation.
The aim of this study was to morphometrically analyze the tissue response to a customized pin obtained from devitalized bovine cortical bone (DBCB-pin) implanted in the subcutaneous tissue of rats, as well as to assess its microstructural aspect by scanning electron microscopy (SEM). The pins were implanted in the subcutaneous tissue of 20 rats, which were killed at 7, 14, 28 and 60 days (5 rat...
متن کاملResistance and Stress Finite Element Analysis of Different Types of Fixation for Mandibular Orthognathic Surgery.
The aim of this study was to evaluate the stress and dislodgement resistance by finite element analysis of different types of fixation in mandibular orthognathic surgery. A 3D solid finite element model of a hemi-mandible was obtained. A bilateral sagittal split osteotomy was simulated and the distal segment was advanced 5 mm forward. After the adjustment and superimposing of segments, 9 differ...
