Vertical Distraction<br />

Costochondral rib grafts, Le Fort I Osteotomy<br />

Sagittal split contralateral ramus & genioplasty<br />

A: The skeletal deformity in unilateral<br />

(left) craniofacial microsomia. Note the<br />

absent ramus with deviation of the chin to<br />

the affected side and an occlusal cant<br />

upward toward the left side. The arrows<br />

designate the proposed skeletal movements<br />

of the mandible and maxilla. The dots<br />

designate the midpoints of the upper face,<br />

midface and chin. The dotted area<br />

represents the area where bone is removed<br />

from the maxilla and the interrupted lines<br />

designate the proposed maxillary and chin<br />

osteotomy sites. (Modified from Munro, I.<br />

R., Lauritzen C. G. Classification and<br />

treatment of hemifacial microsomia. In:<br />

Caronni, E. P., (ed.). Craniofacial Surgery.<br />

Boston: Little, Brown & Co., 391–400,<br />

1985.)<br />

B: At the completion of the<br />

osteotomies with plate and screw<br />

fixation applied. Note that the dots<br />

have recreated the midsagittal<br />

plane of the craniofacial skeleton.<br />

The ramus has been reconstructed<br />

with costochondral rib grafts. The<br />

Le Fort I segment has been<br />

impacted on the right side and a<br />

bone graft has been inserted on the<br />

left side. The sagittal split<br />

osteotomy has been fixated with<br />

screws and the genioplasty has<br />

been secured with lag screws.
