About this study

Official title: Does the Patient-specific Depth of the Lateral Nasal Wall Osteotomy Affect the Pterygomaxillary Separation During le Fort I Down-fracture?

The goal of this clinical trial is to show the effect of patient specific lateral nasal wall osteotomy to the pterygomaxillary separation during Le Fort I down-fracture.

Participants will be divided into two treatment groups. In study group, surgery planned according to the patients' indivudial anatomy and in the conventional group, surgery planned according to mean anatomical datas.

Researchers will compare patient specific lateral nasal wall osteotomy to see if it affects the pterygomaxillary junction seperation during le fort I downfracture.

Read the detailed description

The same surgical team performed the osteotomies under general anesthesia with nasotracheal intubation. Hypotensive anesthesia was applied as a standard protocol in all patients. Orthognathic surgery, including Le Fort I and sagittal split ramus osteotomy, was used to correct skeletal deformities.

Bone osteotomy was initiated on the bilateral wall of the maxilla with piezosurgery after a mucosal incision and flap elevation.Lateral nasal osteotomy (LNO) with Nievert Anderson single guarded osteotome, median septum separation with double guarded U-shaped osteotome, and pterygomaxillary junction separation with curved osteotome were performed before the down-fracture. The only difference between the conventional and study groups was the depth of the LNO. In the study group, LNO was performed at a depth of 2 mm less than the measured distance in the axial section. In the conventional osteotomy group, LNO was performed at 30 mm for females and 35 mm for males, as suggested in the literature. A curved osteotome and a mallet were used in each case to separate the pterygomaxillary junction. The down-fracture of the maxilla was performed using a hook and a bone spreader in all patients. When the maxilla was down-fractured, LNW and the pterygomaxillary separation types were assessed intraoperatively. The maxilla was stabilized in its new position by four L-shaped osteosynthesis mini-plates at the zygomaticomaxillary buttress and the aperture piriformis regions.

What is being measured

The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.

  1. lateral nasal wall separation

    The primary outcome variable is lateral nasal wall separation:

    Type 1 Separation from the osteotomy line

    Type 2 Separation 2-4 mm above the osteotomy line

    Type 3 Separation 4 mm or more above the osteotomy line

    Measured: 1 year

Secondary outcomes (1)
  1. pterygomaxillary junction separation

    The secondary outcome variable is pterygomaxillary separation

    Type 1 Separation including the tuber maxilla

    Type 2 Separation from the pterygomaxillary junction

    Type 3 Separation including the pterygoid plates

    Measured: 1 year

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing orthogantic surgery in people with Malocclusion and Open Bite, run by Bezmialem Vakif University at 1 site in Turkey (Türkiye).

The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.

Who may be eligible to take part?

The sponsor lists 3 inclusion and 3 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

Is this clinical trial currently recruiting?

The record says: finished, as of the sponsor's last update on 31 Jan 2024. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 1 site in Turkey (Türkiye). Whether a site is taking part right now should be confirmed with that site. See every site.

What are the possible benefits and risks?

They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.

Are results available for this study?

The study is completed, but results are not available in the source record. That does not mean the treatment did or did not work.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

The record lists no contact. The official record names the sponsor, who can be asked directly. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

lateral nasal wall separation (time frame: 1 year). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?
Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?

No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.

How often is this information updated?

AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 31 Jan 2024.
