Radiographic Assessment of Three Dimensional Mandibular Position Using Splint-less Patient Specific Implant

December 5, 2023 updated by: Abanoub Fayez Aziz, Ain Shams University

Radiographic Assessment of Three Dimensional Mandibular Position Using Splint-less Patient Specific Implant Following Bilateral Sagittal Split Osteotomy

The purpose of this study was to assess the accuracy of a splint-less approach for mandibular jaw orthognathic surgery. This approach utilized a personalized orthognathic surgical guide (POSG) system, which comprised a set of cutting guides and 3D printed custom titanium fixation plates for bilateral sagittal split osteotomies (BSSOs).

The cutting guides were first used to predrill screw holes and guide osteotomies.

The custom plates were then used to reposition and stabilize the bony segments as planned, without the use of surgical splints or any additional tool such as surgical navigation

Conditions

Conditions

The disease, disorder, syndrome, illness, or injury that is being studied. On ClinicalTrials.gov, conditions may also include other health-related issues, such as lifespan, quality of life, and health risks.

Intervention / Treatment

Intervention / Treatment

A process or action that is the focus of a clinical study. Interventions include drugs, medical devices, procedures, vaccines, and other products that are either investigational or already available. Interventions can also include noninvasive approaches, such as education or modifying diet and exercise.

Detailed Description

Surgical technique:

The buccal bony surface of the mandible was exposed as a routine sagittal split osteotomy. First, the mandibular cutting guide was installed using the tooth-borne splint portion of the guide.

Second, the lower portion of the guide was temporarily fixed with titanium screws through the designed screw holes on the guide. The planned margins for vertical osteotomy/ ostectomy were then marked by a pencil.

Once the cutting guide was removed, the sagittal split osteotomy was completed as usual. Finally, the distal and proximal segments were fixed together using the custom plates and screw holes that were used by the cutting guide.

Accuracy of preoperative surgical planning, and validation of the use of patient specific implants (PSI) in bilateral sagittal split osteotomy (BSSO) by comparing the planned outcomes to the actual postoperative outcomes by two methos.

A)Evaluation the discrepancy between planned and obtained post-operative position of the mandibular plates, rami, and occlusion by analyzing the discrepancies in terms of rotation (roll, pitch and yaw) and translation (antero-posterior, lateral and vertical). These movements were determined by incorporating the segments in homologous bounding-boxes, aligning the planned model to the post-op result colorimetric map inspection.

B) Measurements of the linear differences between the planned and postoperative positions of the mandibular midlines, the chin, and the gonial angle.

Phase

Phase

The stage of a clinical trial studying a drug or biological product, based on definitions developed by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA). The phase is based on the study's objective, the number of participants, and other characteristics. There are five phases: Early Phase 1 (formerly listed as Phase 0), Phase 1, Phase 2, Phase 3, and Phase 4. Not Applicable is used to describe trials without FDA-defined phases, including trials of devices or behavioral interventions.

Participation Criteria

Researchers look for people who fit a certain description, called eligibility criteria. Some examples of these criteria are a person's general health condition or prior treatments.

Eligibility Criteria

Eligibility Criteria

The key requirements that people who want to participate in a clinical study must meet or the characteristics they must have. Eligibility criteria consist of both inclusion criteria (which are required for a person to participate in the study) and exclusion criteria (which prevent a person from participating). Types of eligibility criteria include whether a study accepts healthy volunteers, has age or age group requirements, or is limited by sex.

Ages Eligible for Study

  • Child
  • Adult
  • Older Adult

Accepts Healthy Volunteers

Yes

Description

Inclusion Criteria:

  1. Patients suffering from skeletal deformity requiring mandibular orthognathic surgery (Bilateral sagittal splitting osteotomy).
  2. Patients should be free from any systemic disease that may affect normal bone healing and predictable outcome.

Exclusion Criteria:

  1. Patients with metabolic bone disease that affects bone healing.
  2. Intra-bony lesions that may affect the osteotomy healing.
  3. Patients with history of radiotherapy on the head and neck region

What is the study measuring?

Primary Outcome Measures

Primary Outcome Measures

In a clinical study's protocol, the planned outcome measure that is the most important for evaluating the effect of an intervention/treatment. Most clinical studies have one primary outcome measure, but some have more than one.
Outcome Measure
Measure Description
Time Frame
device feasibility and eligibility for use of PSI
Time Frame: 1 week postoperative
The primary outcome of this study is to assess the accuracy of preoperative surgical planning, and validation feasibility of the use of patient specific implants (PSI) in bilateral sagittal split osteotomy (BSSO) by comparing the planned outcomes to the actual postoperative outcomes by two measurement tools (MIMICS software, and DICOM file of pre and post operative CT) . By using software we can superimpose the DICOM files of CT and linear differences in millimetres between fixed points in CT can be obtained to assess the accuracy of the outcome.
