متن کاملMassive repeated nose bleeding after bimaxillary osteotomy.
In LeFort I surgery, the separation of the pterygomaxillary junction is done by osteotomy. Although the osteotome is positioned too close to the maxillary artery and its branches during pterygomaxillary separation, postoperative complications from vascular injuries are uncommon. We describe an unusual occurrence of a maxillary artery pseudoaneurysm after LeFort I and bilateral sagittal split os...
متن کاملPosterior transpalatal distraction with pterygoid disjunction: a short-term model study.
The transpalatal distractor (TPD) allows for maxillary expansion according to the concepts of distraction osteogenesis. Unlike tooth-borne, surgically assisted rapid palatal expansion devices, the bone-borne TPD is designed to avoid periodontal ligament compression, buccal root resorption, fenestration, tooth tipping, and orthodontic relapse during and after the expansion. When the distractor i...
