Distraction osteogenesis (DO) of the mandible is often performed at a young age, and there are few reports after age 30, as in this case. The Hybrid MMF used in this case was useful in that it allowed correction of fine directionality.
DO is often performed in young patients with a high capability of osteogenesis. We performed distraction surgery for a 35-year-old man who had severe micrognathia with serious sleep apnea syndrome. Four years postoperatively, suitable occlusion and improvement of apnea were observed.
下颌骨牵张成骨术(DO)通常在年轻时进行,30岁以后的报告很少,就像本病例一样。本病例中使用的混合式颌间固定术很有用,因为它可以校正精细的方向。
DO常用于成骨能力强的年轻患者。我们为一名35岁患有严重小颌畸形并伴有严重睡眠呼吸暂停综合征的男性患者进行了牵张手术。术后四年,观察到咬合良好且呼吸暂停情况有所改善。
