About this study

Official title: Accuracy of Maxillary Fixation Using Custom Plates on Nasal Buttress Only Via Minimally Invasive Approach Versus Custom Plates on Nasal and Zygomatic Buttresses Via Conventional Approach in Orthognathic Surgeries: A Randomized Controlled Trial.

The goal of this clinical trial is to evaluate of the accuracy maxilla fixation using custom plates on nasal buttress only via minimally invasive approach versus using custom plates on nasal and zygomatic buttresses via conventional approach. The main question it aims to answer is:

  • Is the minimally invasive approach accurate and stable ? Researchers will compare minimally invasive technique to the traditional technique of fixation of the maxilla bone to see if it is as accurate and stable.

Participants will:

  • Undergo surgey
  • Follow up visits weekly for a month then on a monthly basis for 5 more months.
Being tested
minimally invasive maxillary fixation, Maxilla fixation using custom plates on nasal and zygomatic buttresses via conventional vestibular approach.
Keywords

What is being measured

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

  1. Accuracy of the maxilla fixation on CT compared to preoperative plan assessed by superimposition of preoperative and immediate postoperative scans.

    linear measurement of discrepancy between both scans after superimposition

    Measured: from preoperative plan to immediate postoperative (1 week)

Secondary outcomes (1)
  1. Stability of maxilla fixation by superimposing preoperative and 6months postoperative CT scans

    linear measurement of discrepancy between both scans after superimposition

    Measured: from enrollment to 6 month postoperative

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing minimally invasive maxillary fixation and Maxilla fixation using custom plates on nasal and zygomatic buttresses via conventional vestibular approach. in people with Orthognathic Surgery, run by Cairo University.

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: opening soon, as of the sponsor's last update on 31 Dec 2025. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

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?

This study is still under way. Results are not available in the source record yet.

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

Contact Mahmoud H Khorshed, MSc (00201002007644, mahmoud.khorshed@dentistry.cu.edu.eg), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Accuracy of the maxilla fixation on CT compared to preoperative plan assessed by superimposition of preoperative and immediate postoperative scans. (time frame: from preoperative plan to immediate postoperative (1 week)). 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 Dec 2025.
