Maxillary Osteotomies

Among the essential procedures in the surgical armamentarium of a maxillofacial surgeon is the ability to section and reposition the mid facial skeleton. The versatility of the LeFort I and its variations allows the surgeon to correct a broad spectrum of mid facial skeletal abnormalities whether of congenital, developmental, or acquired in origin. This book will provide an overview of the principles and surgical details used in maxillofacial orthognathic surgery.
