Biologic basis for modification of the sagittal ramus split operation.

W H Bell, S A Schendel

    Summary

    Minimally detaching the pterygomasseteric sling and mucoperiosteum during mandibular ramus sagittal splitting in rhesus monkeys reduced bone ischemia and necrosis. This supports a clinical technique that preserves these attachments for better bone healing.

    Area of Science:

    • Oral and Maxillofacial Surgery
    • Bone Biology
    • Surgical Techniques

    Background:

    • Sagittal splitting of the mandibular ramus is a common surgical procedure.
    • Understanding revascularization and bone healing is crucial for optimizing surgical outcomes.
    • Previous techniques may lead to ischemia and necrosis in osteotomized segments.

    Purpose of the Study:

    • To compare revascularization and bone healing between two sagittal splitting techniques.
    • To investigate the impact of pterygomasseteric sling and mucoperiosteal detachment on bone viability.
    • To identify a surgical approach that minimizes intraosseous ischemia.

    Main Methods:

    • Ten adult rhesus monkeys served as experimental models.
    • Microangiographic and histologic analyses were performed on osteotomized mandibular rami.
    • Two different sagittal splitting techniques were evaluated, varying the degree of mucoperiosteal and pterygomasseteric sling detachment.

    Main Results:

    • Intraosseous ischemia and necrosis were observed in osteotomized segments, particularly where the pterygomasseteric sling was detached.
    • Minimally detaching the mucoperiosteum and pterygomasseteric sling from the proximal segment significantly reduced intraosseous ischemia and necrosis.
    • The technique preserving greater attachment demonstrated improved vascularity and bone healing.

    Conclusions:

    • Preserving the pterygomasseteric sling and mucoperiosteum attachment is critical for reducing ischemia and promoting bone healing after mandibular ramus sagittal splitting.
    • A clinical technique that maximizes these attachments is recommended for improved patient outcomes.
    • This study provides evidence-based support for a modified surgical approach in mandibular ramus osteotomies.
