Distraction Osteogenesis – Evolution & Technique - An Overview
نویسندگان
چکیده
Distraction osteogenesis is a novel method for neo-tissue generation which involves development of both hard and soft tissue under applied force in certain direction. The major advantage of this procedure is diminishing reliability on grafting for reconstruction hence lack of donor site morbidity. Myriad of applications of distraction osteogenesis are present in maxillofacial surgery field which include mandibular distraction, midfacial distraction, alveolar ridge augmentation for functional, aesthetic and rehabilitative purpose.

Since its introduction in about 1950, the Le Fort III (LF III) procedure has become a widely accepted treatment for correction of midface hypoplasia and related functional and esthetic problems. As long-term surgical experience grows and improvements are made in technique, equipment and peri-operative care, the number of LF III procedures performed worldwide is increasing. A number of fundament...
متن کاملIn vivo study of human mandibular distraction osteogenesis. Part I: bone transport force determination.
Distraction Osteogenesis (DO) is a surgical technique used to reconstruct bone defects. The evolution of forces acting during DO is known to be strongly influencing the clinical issue of the treatment. The aim of this study was to determine experimentally the time-dependent forces imposed on bone regenerate by a distraction device in the case of a mandibular DO consecutive to a gunshot wound. T...
متن کاملDistraction Osteogenesis for Brachymetatarsia by Using Internal Device
Congenital brachymetatarsia most commonly involves the fourth ray and may be combined with metacarpal shortening. Now, many reports demonstrated the usefulness of distraction osteogenesis for lengthening of the metatarsals by using an external distraction device. In this article, we treated shortening fourth metatarsal by bone lengthening using the internal distraction device. This technique ha...

Seven children with a post-traumatic cubitus varus deformity were treated using the Ilizarov technique of distraction osteogenesis. The outcome was rated as excellent in each case and all were satisfied with the cosmetic appearance. No complications had been encountered by the latest follow-up at a mean of 66.7 months. This technique seems reliable for the treatment of such deformities, provide...
