i ntroduction:   the  trigeminocardiac  reflex  (tcr)  refers  to  the  sudden development of bradycardia as well as asystole along with arterial hypotension associated with any manipulation of sensory branches of the trigeminal nerve. clinically, the tcr has been reported to occur during craniofacial surgery. it is crucial to learn about this sudden physiological response during maxillofacial ...

background and objectives: split sagittal osteotomy is a common operation that may induce inferior alveolar nerve (ian) damage, potentially leading to sensory deficit, numbness, and pain. investigations in iran to evaluate the adverse effects of sagittal split osteotomy surgery are rare so questions have been raised about the success rate of operation and the frequency of unwilling outcome. to ...

introduction: bilateral sagittal split osteotomy (bsso) of mandible is vastly used in treatment of mandibular deficiencies and discrepancies. since this method could affect esthetic as well as function, evaluating these effects from various aspects is crucial. this study assessed the effects of this technique on the function of masseter muscle, jaw movements, and sensory changes along with fail...

BACKGROUND The most frequently performed osteotomy for correction of mandibular retrognathia is a bilateral sagittal split ramus osteotomy. Permanent neurosensory disturbance of the inferior alveolar nerve is one of the most frequently and severe complications. Many authors have reported this, but the incidence differs widely. In the recent literature, only four authors have reported a percenta...
