متن کاملComplications in bilateral mandibular distraction osteogenesis using internal devices.
OBJECTIVE We sought to evaluate the possibility of distraction osteogenesis as an alternative to conventional bilateral sagittal split osteotomy. Complications (intraoperative, intradistraction, and postdistraction) were evaluated retrospectively. STUDY DESIGN Seventy consecutive patients (40 males and 30 females, 11.2-37.3 years old; mean, 14.2 years) underwent distraction osteogenesis to le...
