Effect of Redon-type Drains on Postoperative Edema Following Mandibular Orthognathic Surgery: a Randomized, Controlled Superiority Trial With Two Parallel Arms (DPO - OM)

11 november 2026 bijgewerkt door: University Hospital, Tours

Orthognathic surgery involves the maxillary and/or mandibular skeletal bases; it entails maxillary and/or mandibular osteotomies (such as sagittal split osteotomies of the mandibular rami) aimed at restoring normal maxillomandibular skeletal and dento-occlusal relationships in patients with maxillomandibular dysmorphosis. These deformities give rise to morphological, aesthetic, and functional abnormalities that can be severe (e.g., respiratory issues, temporomandibular joint pain). Postoperative edema is inevitable following orthognathic surgery; it can be significant, causing pain and discomfort while delaying patient recovery and hospital discharge. The use of Redon-type drains for mandibular osteotomies is not a standard practice across surgical teams due to a lack of consensus. The only available data come from studies with methodologies that do not allow for a definitive conclusion regarding the superiority of using-or not using-postoperative Redon drains (Lee et al. 2020), and no clinical trials have investigated this issue. This project aims to evaluate the impact of Redon-type drainage in mandibular osteotomies (sagittal split osteotomies of the mandibular rami), whether or not combined with genioplasty (osteotomy of the mental symphysis). We hypothesize that drainage using Redon-type drains for 6 hours in the immediate postoperative period following mandibular osteotomies significantly reduces postoperative edema.

The primary objective of this clinical trial is to demonstrate the superiority-in terms of reducing postoperative edema at day 2-of placing Redon-type drains for 6 hours immediately following sagittal split osteotomy of the mandibular rami (in addition to standard postoperative care) compared to standard postoperative care alone, without a drainage device.

Hypothesis: Demonstrating that the use of Redon-type drains following orthognathic surgery osteotomies reduces postoperative edema, pain, and discomfort would provide a rational basis for this practice and support its routine implementation. The expected benefits are twofold, impacting both patients and public health. For patients, the anticipated benefits include reduced postoperative discomfort and pain, faster recovery, and shorter hospital stays, with the future prospect of outpatient care.

Deelnemersgroep / Arm
Interventie / Behandeling
Experimenteel: experimental arm

with drains placed at the end of the procedure, in addition to standard postoperative care. These will be Redon drains with an outlet that is either intraoral or transcutaneous in the cervical region, depending on the participating center's practices (intraoral transmucosal in the Tours and Angers centers or transcutaneous in the Nantes center); these drains will be removed 6 hours after placement

in which drains are placed at the end of the procedure, in addition to standard postoperative care.

Actieve vergelijker: control arm

which consists of not placing any drainage device immediately after surgery, with standard postoperative care identical to that of the experimental group.

Maatregel Beschrijving
Tijdsspanne
Postoperative swelling
Tijdsspanne: Cervicofacial linear measurement will be collected 48 hours after the randomization (day 2) and at month 3. As the facial skeletal anatomy will be modified by the surgical procedure, month 3 will be considered as the baseline measurement.

The primary outcome will be the post operative facial swelling 48 hours after the end of the surgical procedure (randomization will be at this timepoint) measured with cervicofacial linear measurements

Cervicofacial linear measurement will be collected 48 hours after the randomization (day 2) and at month 3. As the facial skeletal anatomy will be modified by the surgical procedure, month 3 will be considered as the baseline measurement.
