surgeons are performing simultaneous LeFort I and III advancements [24]. When the midface and the maxilla are simultaneously and independently osteotomized, less movement is required for each piece to reach proper occlusion. This is useful for cases of soft tissue restriction or when a single-staged surgery is desired. Finally, virtual planning allows surgeons to design and guide unconventional osteotomies that would be difcult to execute in a free-hand style. This has led to the creation of “modied” LeFort II/III osteotomies through a combined transoral and transcon­junctival approach [25]. The concealed access of these modied procedures spares the morbidity and external scarring of a coronal ap, although they do not permit for nasofrontal advancement.

Pierre Robin Sequence
Introduction
Pierre Robin sequence, or Robin sequence (RS), is a rare congenital anomaly char­acterized by a clinical triad of micrognathia, glossoptosis, and upper airway obstruc­tion [26]. In RS, the precipitating event of an underdeveloped mandible initiates the subsequent cascade of tongue base retropositioning, possible palatal clefting, and respiratory and/or feeding difculties. The cleft palate of RS is generally U-shaped and wider than that seen with other cleft conditions. Furthermore, the RS mandible is morphologically abnormal with a shorter ramus and a more oblique symphysial angle [27]. RS may occur in isolation or as part of an underlying genetic syndrome. Isolated RS comprises between 20% and 40% of cases [28, 29]. The precise etiol­ogy of mandibular retrognathia in these isolated cases is unknown but may be related to sporadic mutations of the SOX9 gene; however, this has not been proven with convincing data [30]. Because no single genetic locus has been found to be consistently altered across patients, isolated RS may also stem from environmental

inuences of intrauterine growth restriction [31]. This environmental theory would account for the postnatal catch-up growth observed with some patients. On the con­trary, syndromic patients with RS are believed to present with a primary mandibular growth disorder. Stickler syndrome followed by velocardiofacial syndrome are most commonly associated with RS, although over 50 named syndromes are known to present with features of RS.It is important to note that some researchers have found that neither isolated nor syndromic RS patients exhibit meaningful catch-up growth. This discordance highlights the fact that, although the clinical consequences of micrognathia are well-known, the precise etiology and long-term trajectory of RS are poorly understood.

Traditional Repair
Infants with RS can present along a broad spectrum of respiratory and feeding dif­culties, and surgical interventions are aimed at improving these issues. Nonoperative measures for relieving airway obstruction include prone positioning, positive air­way pressure, and intubation. It is important to verify tongue base collapse with endoscopy and rule out other potential confounding conditions such as hypotonia, central apneas, and laryngomalacia. In the authors’ experience, the decision to treat the mandible in cases of suspected RS is not always straightforward especially in the setting of multiple contributing comorbidities. In patients who have multifacto­rial drivers of poor weight gain and disordered breathing, tracheostomy and gastros­tomy tube placement reliably provide a denitive means of ensuring spontaneous respirations and adequate nutrition.
The routine and permanent use of tracheostomy and gastrostomy tubes should not be the treatment of choice to circumvent oropharyngeal collapse. These inter­ventions are considered a last resort after all other options have been exhausted. A variety of targeted interventions have been developed to treat the anatomic anoma­lies of RS in order to avoid the need for tracheostomy/gastrostomy. Tongue–lip adhesion (TLA) aims to hold the tongue in protrusion by pexying it to the lower lip. This adhesion is generally maintained for 12months; however, the exact timing of take down is individualized based on patient requirement and the capacity for catch­ up growth in the mandible. If a cleft palate exists, the release of the TLA is generally deferred until 2–3months after palate repair assuming that it is safe to detach the tongue at that time. The benet of TLA is that the effects are immediate, and the procedure is well-tolerated with little need for specialized home care afterwards. The literature supports the use of TLA for cases of mild obstructive sleep apnea (OSA); however, recent experiences out of high-volume craniofacial centers have demonstrated that mandibular distraction osteogenesis (MDO) consistently outper­forms TLA across all endpoints [32]. MDO treats the primary deformity by length­ening and projecting the mandible. MDO involves performing a posterior body osteotomy, applying mechanical distractors, transporting the free segments, and allowing for bony consolidation of the intervening callous. Following a brief latency period (often unnecessary in infants), the distraction is generally performed at a rate of 1 to 2mm per day until the patient becomes slightly overcorrected and progna­thic. We use the relationship of the upper and lower alveolar ridges as a guide to judge lower jaw position. The distractor arms are removed once distraction is com­pleted; however, a secondary procedure is still required to take out the remaining hardware after a couple months of consolidation.
Mandibular distraction, as rst described by McCarthy, was initially performed using external devices with transcutaneous pins. In the early 1990s, external distrac­tors were the standard method for mandibular distraction. These external devices are still used in select circumstances with the main advantage being that the distrac­tion vector can be altered and adjusted during the period of activation. In resource­limited settings given their reusability, reduced surgical time, and lower overall
1 Innovations inCraniofacial Surgery

treatment costs, external distractors are often still employed. Although infants gen­erally tolerate the external appliance, the multiple pin sites are susceptible to infec­tion and postremoval scarring. In the late 1990s and early 2000s, external distractors were largely supplanted by lower-prole internal distractors with percutaneous dis­traction arms. These semi-buried devices have a unidirectional ratchet that prevents backwards activation and provides a safety mechanism against inadvertent move­ments. The limitations to these appliances are that the vector cannot be altered once the device is buried and that removal requires a revisit to the operating room to uncover and retrieve the device.

Contemporary Treatment
As in other areas of craniofacial surgery, computer-aided surgical planning has dras­tically improved the technique and safety of MDO. The accuracy of computer­assisted distraction cannot be understated. A series out of Spain found that their nal screw placement was consistently within 1mm of their plan and that angular deviations of their osteotomy line were less than 4 degrees off-axis [33]. This con­rms the notion that surgeons are able to reliably and accurately execute their vir­tual plan. Dental complications of MDO are well-known and some are certainly unavoidable given the limited availability of bone stock and age at which RS patients are treated [34]. Computer-aided surgical planning allows surgeons to plan the oste­otomies away from tooth buds and the inferior alveolar nerve to optimize tooth development. Multiangular osteotomies can be designed for this purpose. Likewise, the predictive holes can be registered and pre-drilled through the same osteotomy cutting guide in order to minimize trauma to the developing structures. The thick­ness of the bone can be measured to guide appropriate screw selection. Although MDO is performed with a straight-line advancement, computer-aided surgical plan­ning assists with choosing the optimal vector and with matching this vector on both sides of the mandible. When the distraction is simulated, the MDO gap can be mea­sured, and the duration of activation can be predicted. Stereolithographic models are used to preoperatively adapt the footplates for ease and time-savings (Fig.1.5). To the best of our knowledge, custom-milled or printed internal distractors are not commercially available at this time; however, patient-specic distraction hardware may be in the pipeline as such devices would further reduce surgical deviation from the proposed plan.
Some of the challenges with computer-aided surgical planning, in addition to the cost of the technology, include data acquisition and manufacturing lead time. CT scans are required to capture the cross-sectional anatomy, and the exposure of infants to ionizing radiation is a valid concern. In our experience, infants often need intubation and general anesthesia to eliminate motion artifact especially, because repeating a CT for poor image quality is difcult to justify when the anatomy can be visualized and the sole purpose is to obtain accurate surgical guides. Many RS infants also have difcult airways that require high-risk intubations by skilled

specialists. As a result, extubating these patients after CT is not always advisable. Finally, although the lead-time for obtaining patient models and guides has decreased in recent years, at least 7days is generally required between planning session and surgery date. In most cases, this period of time is not prohibitive to using computer-aided surgical technology, and with the expansion of in-house printing capabilities at more and more centers, we anticipate that the manufacturing time will continue to shorten.
Hemifacial Microsomia andTreacher Collins Syndrome
Introduction
Both hemifacial microsomia (HFM) and Treacher Collins syndrome (TCS) are con­genital conditions arising from the abnormal development of the rst and second branchial arches. HFM, which is better termed craniofacial microsomia, is the
22
https://t.me/medicina_free
second most common congenital anomaly of the face following cleft lip and palate. The term Goldenhar syndrome is used in the presence of internal organ and verte­bral alterations. The incidence of HFM lies between 1in 3000 and 5000 births. The precise etiology of HFM is unknown; however, the prevailing theory implicates an in-utero vascular event affecting the stapedial artery, which in turn results in mas­sive tissue injury in the characteristic distribution. Experiments provoking a stape­dial artery hematoma in mouse embryos have successfully replicated the HFM phenotype [35]. The branchial arches are derived from neural crest cells, and failed migration is thought to also play a role in the pathogenesis. There is also a potential genetic contribution to HFM, as higher rates of HFM have been identied among rst degree relatives and an autosomal dominant inheritance pattern has been observed. Classically, HFM affects boys more commonly than girls, and although 10% of cases have a bilateral presentation, the right side is affected more severely and commonly than the left. The reasons for this pattern are poorly understood. The OMENS classication of HFM is the most commonly used nomenclature for strati­fying disease severity. The OMENS system encompasses the anatomic spectrum of craniofacial deformities seen in HFM, namely, the orbit, mandible, ear, facial nerve, and soft tissue.
TCS, also known as mandibulofacial dysostosis, likewise manifests as an under­development of the rst two branchial arches. TCS is much rarer than HFM, arising in 1in 50,000 births, and is most frequently caused by mutations to the TCOF1 gene, which is inherited in an autosomal dominant fashion. Despite their similari­ties, there are a few distinguishing features between HFM and TCS.TCS is always bilateral with fairly symmetric facial hypoplasia. The malar depression, sunken cheek appearance, and downward slating of the palpebral ssures are much more profound in TCS. TCS also has a higher rate of palatal clefting and transverse max­illary constriction, whereas in HFM there is a tendency to see Tessier 7 clefting and macrostomia from failed fusion of the maxillary and mandibular processes. Although the Kaban–Pruzansky classication of mandibular deciency is integrated as part of the OMENS classication for HFM, the Kaban–Pruzansky classication is also an acceptable taxonomy for describing the TCS mandible given the morpho­logic similarities.

A wide range of severities exists for both HFM and TCS.In infancy, the early treat­ment goals are aimed at relieving airway obstruction, correcting orofacial clefts, and addressing any vision and hearing abnormalities. Some surgeons will elect to intervene and operate on the facial bones during active growth with the intent of minimizing psychosocial stress and intercepting growth to limit the magnitude of secondary craniofacial deformities. Similar to other dentofacial deformities, deni­tive skeletal and soft tissue correction are best postponed until after skeletal matu­rity. Maxillomandibular growth is completed around 16–18 years with skeletal

maturity being reached later for boys than girls. The cranium and orbit generally can be corrected earlier, at around age 10, because skull growth is complete at that time. Likewise, for HFM, the growth of an unaffected ear is completed at around 7 years, so auricular reconstruction of the malformed ear can be done any time after then.
Similar to RS infants, OSA secondary to mandibular retrognathia is treated with either TLA, MDO, or tracheostomy. Because severe expressions of HFM and TCS present with an absent ramus-condyle unit (RCU), MDO may not be feasible in infancy given the poor retromolar bone stock. Therefore, it may be prudent to obtain a plain lm prior to submitting the patient to a CT for surgical planning. Among children with grade 2b and 3 mandibular morphology, Kaban and Pruzansky have traditionally recommended early mandibular reconstruction to keep pace with nor­mative growth. Their preference toward early intervention was motivated by the aforementioned reasons with the thought that doing so would simplify subsequent corrections at maturity. Furthermore, without staging the reconstruction, the soft tissue envelope in adulthood may not be able to accommodate the sudden stretch required to make the necessary skeletal movements. Still, despite the intuitive logic, the benets of early interceptive surgery have yet to be proven [36].
At the time of Kaban and Pruzansky’s publication, RCU reconstruction had pri­marily been achieved with costochondral grafting. The rib graft is a relatively sim­ple harvest and does not require any additional imaging outside of a chest X-ray. If the periosteal sleeve of the rib is preserved and reapproximated in children, a neo­rib can regenerate to ll the donor defect. Costochondral grafts in younger patients have the purported benet of conferring growth potential so long as care is taken to ensure that the cartilaginous cap remains attached. Unfortunately, the overwhelm­ing consensus is that costal cartilage growth is unpredictable [37]. Some believe the amount of growth is a function of the size of the cartilaginous cap that is attached to the graft.
In the early 1990s, when distraction of the maxillofacial complex gained popu­larity, vertical ramus distractors became another popular option for RCU recon­struction. As with mandibular distractors, the rst such devices were externally xated. Some patients planned for distraction may require an initial bone graft to create a surface to attach the posterior foot plate. Mandibular distraction for HFM and TCS often requires a multivector or a curvilinear pathway to simultaneously advance, vertically lengthen, and counterclockwise rotate the mandible. In the absence of a glenoid fossa, it may be hard to ensure that the transported bone reaches a suitable landing point. It is often the case that the distracted condylar segment ends up far away from the external auditory meatus in a position too medial and anterior to give any meaningful function.
The orbito-zygomatic complex is another region that maxillofacial surgeons are often challenged with reconstructing. The rudimentary malar bones can be osteoto­mized and advanced, raised, and lateralized to improve projection. A split calvarial bone graft is often used for augmentation because of its good take, low absorption rates, and existing availability through the same coronal access used to approach the upper midface [38]. Iliac crest bone can also be harvested to but is less preferred.
