“…Sin embargo, su complicación técnica deriva del número de accesos quirúrgicos y complejidad de las osteotomías, en nuestra revisión no encontramos estudios que analicen las complicaciones de esta osteotomía, una posible complicación puede ser una necrosis avascular por deficiente riego sanguíneo a la superficie ósea y tejidos blandos que puede afectar desde la pérdida de vitalidad a dientes y periodonto, hasta daño estructural importante a segmentos dentoalveolares 11,12 . El mantener siempre una adecuada perfusión sanguínea por parte del colgajo palatino y vestíbulo labial es de vital importancia 12 .…”

“…An increase in intracranial pressure might result in optic nerve atrophy and loss of vision if no intervention is made [10]. These patients might have other concomitant skeletal problems such as mandibular prognathism and/or retrognathism, possibly in association with midface deformity [11].…”

“…Correction of midface deformities at younger ages might have a significant role in decreasing the psychological problems of these patients [13]. The important role of the face in vision, respiration, speech, smelling, and hearing makes the defects that affect this area more important than the esthetic problems [11].…”

Crouzon syndrome is the most common type of craniofacial dysostosis anomaly which presents a great challenge for clinicians since birth. Multiple synostoses in the sutures of the cranial base in this syndrome result in the hypoplasia of the midface, shallow orbits, a short nasal dorsum, maxillary hypoplasia, and, in severe cases, obstruction of the upper airways. Apart from esthetic and functional problems, these patients suffer from various psychological problems which mandate correction of midface deformities at younger ages. The aim of this report is to describe the case of a 26-year-old female patient with Crouzon syndrome displaying severe midface hypoplasia and proptosis with no history of orthodontic treatment, who was treated with modified Le Fort III osteotomy with a coronal and intraoral approach without periocular incisions.

“…The treatment plan and the surgical technique are defined based on facial analysis and assessment of facial discrepancy. Le Fort II osteotomy is indicated for nasoma xillary hypoplasias and correction of retrusion of the nasomaxillary complex, allowing the advancement of the middle third of the face [9][10][11]13].…”

Introduction: Fractures should be treated by a multi-professional team to minimize sequels. The surgery aims to establish a good maxillary, mandibular relationship to improve mastication and phonetics and may benefit esthetics. Objective: to report the surgical procedure with Le Fort II osteotomy for correction of class III dentofacial deformity and the nasomaxillary deficiency caused by trauma. Case report: Patient victim of aggression for 10 years suffered a Le Fort II fracture. The fracture was not treated and the patient developed a severe anteroposterior defect of the nasomaxillary complex andClass III occlusion. The surgery for correcting deformities was performed with the bicoronal, lower eyelid and intraoral accesses. Le Fort II pyramidal osteotomy was performed with a piezoelectric motor to advance 7 mm the nasomaxillary complex. Conclusion: Le Fort II osteotomy is considered satisfactory for advancing the nasomaxillary complex, improving the patient´s psychosocial function and development.
