Summary

Septorhinoplasty combined with orthognathic surgery shows no significant difference between LeFort I and sagittal split osteotomies. Rigid fixation is crucial for airway management and stable nasal support, impacting patient satisfaction.

Area of Science:

  • Plastic Surgery
  • Oral and Maxillofacial Surgery
  • Otolaryngology

Background:

  • Orthognathic surgery corrects jaw deformities, often requiring concurrent septorhinoplasty for aesthetic and functional nasal improvement.
  • This study evaluates two common orthognathic techniques: LeFort I osteotomy and sagittal split osteotomy, in combination with septorhinoplasty.

Observation:

  • Twenty-two patients underwent combined septorhinoplasty and orthognathic surgery, with follow-up exceeding 12 months.
  • The study compared outcomes between 15 patients with LeFort I osteotomies and 7 with sagittal split osteotomies.

Findings:

  • No statistically significant difference in outcomes was found between the LeFort I and sagittal split osteotomy groups.
  • Rigid bicortical fixation of the mandible was necessary for endotracheal tube management (transitioning from nasal to oral).

  • Maxillary plating is recommended for robust bony support of the nasal structures.

    • Implications:

    • These findings suggest flexibility in surgical approach for combined procedures, focusing on fixation stability.
    • Optimizing bony support through maxillary plating is key for successful nasal reconstruction outcomes.
    • Patient-reported satisfaction and perception are important metrics for evaluating the success of combined surgical interventions.
