Abstract
Orthognathic surgery is widely used to treat dentofacial deformities. Among the surgical techniques used for addressing dentofacial malformations, the Le fort I maxillary osteotomy remains a workhorse surgical technique; however, significant complications can arise. One of the most serious complications is a pseudoaneurysm that results from injury to a terminal branch of the internal maxillary artery. This report describes two cases of pseudoaneurysms following Le Fort I osteotomy during a 10-year period at our high surgical volume unit which were treated in 2 different ways.
正颌外科手术被广泛用于治疗颌面部畸形。在治疗颌面部畸形的手术技术中,Le fort I 型上颌骨截骨术仍是一种常用的手术技术,但也可能出现严重的并发症。最严重的并发症之一是上颌内动脉末端分支损伤导致的假性动脉瘤。本报告描述了我们的高手术量科室在 10 年间用两种不同方法治疗的两例 Le Fort I 截骨术后假性动脉瘤病例。
期刊介绍:
Oral and Maxillofacial Surgery Cases is a surgical journal dedicated to publishing case reports and case series only which must be original, educational, rare conditions or findings, or clinically interesting to an international audience of surgeons and clinicians. Case series can be prospective or retrospective and examine the outcomes of management or mechanisms in more than one patient. Case reports may include new or modified methodology and treatment, uncommon findings, and mechanisms. All case reports and case series will be peer reviewed for acceptance for publication in the Journal.
