Popis: | (1) Background: The purpose of this study was to evaluate stability and complications following mandibular setback using intraoral vertical ramus osteotomy (IVRO) and provide an assessment of IMF (Inter-maxillary Fixation) compliance. (2) Methods: This is a retrospective cohort study. It included a total of 39 patients who underwent 78 IVRO for the treatment of mandibular prognathism between 2005 and 2021 at Sheba Medical Center. Radiographic and clinical examinations were performed preoperatively (T0), 3 days post-surgery (T1) and 8 months post-surgery (T2). Measurements of dental and skeletal stability, as well as neurosensory disturbances and TMJ dysfunctions, were statistically analyzed. (3) Results: The mean mandibular setback was 5.6 mm. A relapse of less than 2 mm was observed at T2. A short-term neurological disturbance was reported in 38.46% of the 39 patients, and 17.94% of them showed full recovery by T2. In 21 patients who underwent IVRO without genioplasty, only 14.28% reported long-term sensory disturbance. In addition, when a vertical osteotomy was performed, neurological damage was 174% higher as compared to oblique osteotomy. The IMF compliance rate for the 6 weeks postoperatively was 100%. (4) Conclusions: IVRO is still a relevant and valid technique for the treatment of mandibular prognathism that provides stable results with minimal complications rate. |
