Sagittal mandibular ramus osteotomy (SSRO) has undergone some modifications in terms of the position of the osteotomy and its extension, and it continues to be a versatile and efficient procedure for the treatment of facial deformities. The usual tools to perform the osteotomy include the motor with rotary drills and the reciprocating saw, and recently tools like the laser or the piezoelectric system have been included. The piezoelectric system shows advantages for the safety in the osteotomy and has allowed the development of new techniques that improve the execution and the prognosis of the surgery; the present report shows the technique for SSRO using exclusively the piezoelectric system, without the support of a chisel or other tool during the osteotomy.
矢状劈开下颌升支截骨术（SSRO）在截骨位置及其延伸方面经历了一些改进，并且它仍然是治疗面部畸形的一种通用且有效的手术方法。进行截骨术常用的工具包括带旋转钻头的动力装置和往复锯，最近激光或压电系统等工具也被纳入其中。压电系统在截骨术中显示出安全性优势，并催生了一些新技术，这些新技术改善了手术的实施和预后；本报告展示了仅使用压电系统进行矢状劈开下颌升支截骨术的技术，在截骨过程中无需凿子或其他工具的辅助。
