Le Fort I osteotomies have been carried out on eight cadavers to determine whether pterygomaxillary dysjunction with a curved chisel causes fractures of the pterygoid plates. Fractures occurred on 12 of the 16 sides, were either at the level of the osteotomy cut or near to the base of the skull, and were sometimes multiple. There was no apparent correlation between the presence, type or extent of pterygoid plate fracture and whether or not that side of the osteotomy was completed first.
对八具尸体进行了Le Fort I型截骨术,以确定使用弯凿进行翼上颌离断是否会导致翼突板骨折。16侧中有12侧发生骨折,骨折部位要么在截骨切口水平,要么靠近颅底,有时是多处骨折。翼突板骨折的存在、类型或程度与截骨术该侧是否首先完成之间没有明显关联。
