Treacher Collins Mandibular Distraction - 26/05/21

Résumé |
Treacher Collins syndrome (TCS) is a genetic disorder that presents with a variety of craniofacial deformities. One classic feature of TCS is a steep, counterclockwise rotation of the occlusal plane, and microretrognathia with bony deficiencies in both the body and ramus of the mandible. This morphology commonly necessitates reconstruction by the craniofacial surgeon. This article discusses strategies and considerations for surgically correcting the mandibular deformity associated with TCS using mandibular distraction osteogenesis and other related techniques. The proper implementation of these techniques can yield excellent results that greatly improve quality of life in this challenging patient population.
