A 31-year-old woman with hemifacial microsomia presented to the Department of Oral and Maxillofacial Surgery, Seoul National University Dental Hospital. The patient was previously treated with distraction osteogenesis device to elongate right maxilla and mandibular ramus. But, the result was not satisfactory, to correct residual facial asymmetry due to hemifacial microsomia we planned costochondral graft for reconstruction of ramus and condyle, Le Fort I osteotomy and sagittal split ramus osteotomy for facial asymmetry. The right mandibular condyle and ramus was reconstructed with right eleventh costochondral graft via submandibular approach. Using costochondral graft and orthognathic surgery the facial asymmetry in hemifacial microsomia patient was corrected. 1-stage treatment consists of costochondral graft and orthognathic surgery can achieve function and esthetics at the same time, is timesaving to both patient and surgeon.
