Importance of Functional Airway Surgery in Orthognathic Surgery Performed Patients

Le Fort I osteotomy is usually combined with mandibular ramus procedures (sagittal split) in order to correct dentofacial deformities that cause malocclusion. Patients who have dentofacial anomalies involving the maxilla carry a higher risk of difficulty in breathing due to septal deviation and infe...

description Le Fort I osteotomy is usually combined with mandibular ramus procedures (sagittal split) in order to correct dentofacial deformities that cause malocclusion. Patients who have dentofacial anomalies involving the maxilla carry a higher risk of difficulty in breathing due to septal deviation and inferior turbinate hypertrophy. If these conditions are ignored preoperatively, severe airway problems may come up after orthognathic surgery. A detailed examination regarding nasal airway should be conducted in such patients, and they should be informed about their condition which may require an additional intervention during or after their main surgery.
