“…When the maxilla and midface movements are confronted, it is necessary to perform the Le Fort I associated with the Le Fort III osteotomy. Le Fort I osteotomy association is also especially useful in cases in which there is a difference in the extent of the midface hypoplasia in the orbital region in relation to a maxillo-mandibular discrepancy 14 .…”

“…The Le Fort III osteotomy is considered a complex technique, representing a challenge to surgeons due to the risk associated with several complications that could be a mild recurrence and extending to blindness and death 14 . Therefore, it should be considered only in specific cases in which it is impossible to resolve the patient's deformity and complaints with other less complex techniques.…”

RESUMOA combinação da terapia ortodôntica com a cirurgia ortognática é uma modalidade de tratamento bem estabelecida para a correção de deformidades dentofaciais. Quando estas deformidades apresentam maior severidade, envolvendo a hipoplasia do terço médio da face, exigem técnicas cirúrgicas não utilizadas como rotina no tratamento das alterações faciais, como a osteotomias Le Fort III ou as variações destas técnicas. Poucos estudos relatam o uso desta técnica ou de suas modificações em pacientes não sindrômicos. Este trabalho tem como objetivo demonstrar uma resolução ortodôntica-cirúrgica de um paciente apresentando deformidade de face com má-oclusão Classe III severa, envolvendo hipoplasia do terço médio facial, com a realização de uma técnica modificada da osteotomia Le Fort III, associada as osteotomias Le Fort I e osteotomia sagital dos ramos mandibulares. O paciente encontra-se com três anos de acompanhamento pós-operatório, com melhora significativa na sua habilidade mastigatória, sem queixas funcionais, relatando alta satisfação com a estética e melhora na qualidade de vida.Termos de indexação: Face. Má oclusão. Cirurgia ortognática.

“…The senior maxillofacial surgeon (GS) performed all of the 13 surgical craniofacial osteotomies and facial advancements, with collaboration by the neurosurgeon who operated on the cranial vault. The surgical technique was chosen based on the personal experience of the surgeon, by comparing surgical techniques reported in the literature (Ortiz-Monasterio et al, 1978;Nout et al, 2008;Nada et al, 2010;Laure et al, 2014).…”
