Abstract
|
|
|
In 1950, Gilies reported the first successful correction of a Crouzon’s deformity by means of a total facial osteotomy. To obtain a better correction of the exorbitism, Converse and Wood-Smith advanced the complete orbits and the face in one piece.
Simultaneous advancement of frontal bones, orbit, and fane as described by Tessier and Ortiz-Monasterio, can lead to infection caused by opening the anterior cranial fossa to the nasal cavity. This early or later complication can be avoided by a two-stage procedure, consisting of advancement of upper orbit and frontal bone and a LeFort Ⅲ osteotomy in a separate operation, or by other procedures advocated by Whitker, Ortiz-Monasterio and Anderl.
we obtained a fairy good result by fiontal bone advancement for the 8 year old patient of Crouzon’s deformity to decompress the intracranial pressure and correct the exorbitism.
