Abstract
When treating patients with orthognathic surgery, there might be a risk of obstructive sleep apnoea (OSA) due to soft tissue changes in the upper airways, especially in patients treated with isolated mandibular setback or mandibular setback in combination with maxillary advancement. In the present study, we assessed respiratory function during sleep with home cardiorespiratory polygraphy in 62 patients who had not been previously been diagnosed with OSA at three times: prior to orthognathic surgery for aesthetic and functional indications, and then 3 months and 1 year after surgery. We evaluated surgical displacement based on measurements in three dimensions using pre- and post-operative computed tomography. There were only minor changes in the respiratory parameters such as the apnoea-hypopnoea index (AHI), the apnoea-hypopnoea index in the supine position (AHIsup), the oxygen saturation index (ODI) and the snore index. There was no significant correlation between surgical displacement and the AHI, AHIsup and ODI. There was a weak but significant correlation between vertical displacement of the anterior mandible and the snore index. Within the limitations of the present study, the risk for iatrogenic obstruction of the upper airways seems to be low in patients without OSA treated with orthognathic surgery.

J Craniofac Surg 2024:00001665-990000000-01466. [PMID: 38682924 DOI: 10.1097/scs.0000000000010156] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 10/26/2023] [Accepted: 02/18/2024] [Indexed: 05/01/2024] Open
Abstract
The purpose of the present study was to investigate the pharyngeal airway space (PAS) changes in class III patients receiving bimaxillary orthognathic surgery and correlate the PAS volume and minimum axial section changes with the magnitude of the surgical movement. This research involved a retrospective sample composed of 38 patients with class III skeletal occlusions. Three-dimensional measurements of the PAS volume and minimum axial section were conducted. Cephalometric points were used to verify the extent of jaw-hyoid bone movement. No significant differences were found between pre and postoperative total PAS volume (P = 0.280), nasopharyngeal volume (P = 0.545), oropharyngeal volume (P = 0.297), and minimum axial section (P = 0.568). Anterior movement of point A and posterior nasal spine were significantly associated with an increase in total PAS volume, oropharyngeal volume, and minimum axial section (P < 0.05). However, the posterior movement of menton was significantly associated with a decrease in total PAS volume, oropharyngeal volume, and minimum axial section (P < 0.05). The results of the present study indicated that PAS is not negatively affected by bimaxillary surgery in class III patients. However, the planning of class III patients who are prone to the development of airway problems should be done carefully.

Impacts of mandibular setback with or without maxillary advancement for class III skeletal correction on sleep-related respiratory parameters: A systematic review and meta-analysis. Orthod Craniofac Res 2024. [PMID: 38661057 DOI: 10.1111/ocr.12798] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Accepted: 04/13/2024] [Indexed: 04/26/2024]
Abstract
A systematic review and meta-analysis was conducted to evaluate the impacts of mandibular setback with or without maxillary advancement for class III skeletal correction on respiratory parameters measured by polysomnography (PSG) and to compare these respiratory parameters between these procedures for class III skeletal correction. Six electronic databases were searched up to June 2023. Studies comparing PSG parameters before and after orthognathic surgery for skeletal class III patients were selected for further analysis. The outcomes of interest were apnoea-hypopnea index (AHI), respiratory disturbance index (RDI), the lowest oxygen saturation (lowest SpO2), the average oxygen saturation (mean SpO2), and the 3% oxygen desaturation index (3% ODI). Data extraction, methodological quality assessment, risk of bias assessment, meta-analysis, and subgroup analysis were performed. Sixteen studies with a total of 476 patients who underwent orthognathic surgery for class III skeletal correction were included for meta-analysis. The risk of bias level was moderate for most studies. All PSG parameters before and after orthognathic surgery were not significantly different. The different surgical procedures also did not significantly affect post-operative PSG parameters. 5.8% of patients developed post-operative obstructive sleep apnoea (OSA). Most of them underwent a large distance of mandibular setback. There is a moderate level of evidence that mandibular setback with or without maxillary advancement for class III skeletal correction does not pre-dispose young and healthy patients to obstructive sleep apnoea when evaluated in the short term after surgery. However, post-operatively developed OSA was found in several isolated cases that underwent a large amount of mandibular setback with or without maxillary advancement.

J Craniomaxillofac Surg 2024; 52:503-513. [PMID: 38383249 DOI: 10.1016/j.jcms.2024.02.014] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/05/2023] [Revised: 12/22/2023] [Accepted: 02/02/2024] [Indexed: 02/23/2024] Open
Abstract
This systematic review aimed to investigate the factors that may contribute to the development of OSA after orthognathic surgery in patients with skeletal class III. Electronic searches of PubMed, Embase, Web of Science, and Cochrane databases were conducted up to December 10, 2022. In total, 277 studies were retrieved and screened according to the inclusion and exclusion criteria, and 14 were finally selected. All studies were of medium quality (moderate risk of bias). The occurrence of OSA after orthognathic surgery in patients with class III skeletal relationships depends on surgical factors and patient self-factors. Surgical factors include surgery type, amount of maxillary and mandibular movement, and the patient's postoperative swelling. Patient self-factors include weight, age, gender, and hypertrophy of the soft palate, tonsils, and tongue. According to information in the 14 selected articles, the incidences of OSA after Le Fort I impaction and BSSO setback, BSSO setback, and Le Fort I advancement and BSSO setback were 19.2%, 8.57%, and 0.7%, respectively, mostly accompanied with greater amounts of mandibular recession. However, no clear evidence exists to confirm that orthognathic surgery is a causative factor for postoperative sleep breathing disorders in patients with mandibular prognathism. The wider upper airway in patients with class III skeletal might be the reason for the rare occurrence of OSA after surgery. In addition, obesity and advanced age may lead to sleep apnea after orthognathic surgery. Obese patients should be advised to lose weight preoperatively.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Skeletal class III malocclusion is a common dentofacial deformity. Orthognathic treatment changes the position of the jaws and affects the shape of the upper airway to some extent. The aim of this study was to use multislice spiral computer tomography data and orthognathic knowledge to quantify the relationship between the amount of surgical movement of the maxilla or mandible in all three spatial planes and the changes in airway volume that occurred. METHODS A retrospective study of 50 patients was conducted. Preoperative and postoperative linear changes related to skeletal movements of the maxilla and mandible were measured and compared to changes in the most constricted axial level (MCA) and its anteroposterior (MCA-AP) and transverse diameters (MCA-TV). Correlation tests and linear regression analysis were performed. RESULTS Significant interactions were observed between the anterior vertical movement of the maxilla and the MCA-AP. The anteroposterior movement distance of the mandible was significantly correlated with changes in the oropharyngeal, velopharyngeal, total airway volume, MCA, MCA-AP, and MCA-TV. The change in the mandibular plane angle was significantly correlated with the change in velopharyngeal volume, total airway volume (nasopharynx, oropharynx, velopharynx), and MCA. The linear regression model showed that oropharyngeal volume decreased by 350.04 mm3, velopharyngeal volume decreased by 311.50 mm3, total airway volume decreased by 790.46 mm3, MCA decreased by 10.96 mm2 and MCA-AP decreased by 0.73 mm2 when point B was setback by 1 mm. CONCLUSIONS Anteroposterior mandibular control is the key to successful airway management in all patients. This study provides estimates of volume change per millimeter of setback to guide surgeons in treatment planning.

Abstract
The aim of this study was the development of a statistical model for reliable prediction of Posterior Airway Space (PAS) changes in lateral cephalograms (LCR) of patients after bimaxillary orthognathic surgery. The LCRs of patients who underwent bimaxillary orthognathic surgery were retrospectively analyzed. The anteroposterior dimension of the PAS was measured at three levels in the pre-operative and postoperative LCR: On the nasopharyngeal (SPAS), oropharyngeal (MAS), and hypopharyngeal level (IAS). The data of 139 patients were collected. The following changes of the PAS were measured: in class II patients SPAS: 0.291 mm (SD = 2.570 mm); MAS: 2.444 mm (SD = 2.986 mm); IAS: 0.750 mm (SD = 3.017 mm); in class III patients SPAS: 1.377 mm (SD 3.212 mm); MAS: 0.962 (SD: = 3.135 mm); IAS: 0.370 mm (SD = 3.468 mm). Linear regression analysis showed for class II patients, a significant influence of mandibular movement on MAS (p = 0.049) and a significant effect of maxillary and mandibular movements on SPAS (p = 0.001) and MAS (p = 0.022) in class III patients. The other jaw displacements had no significant impact on the investigated PAS levels. While the presented method does not permit exact prediction of the dimension of the PAS, it is still an easily accessible method of orientation for the surgeon. The surgeon can initiate three-dimensional examinations to provide exact three-dimensional prediction based on this calculation.

Abstract
The aim of this study was to evaluate the 3-dimensional changes in upper airway space of class 3 patients after surgery with sleep-related breathing disturbance. This is a retrospective cohort study included 25 patients who had undergone bimaxillary orthognathic surgery with maxillary advancement and mandibular setback for skeletal class 3 deformity. The changes in minimum axial area, nasopharyngeal and oropharyngeal airway volume were determined by cone-beam computed tomography images, as well as the sleep parameters by polysomnography preoperatively and postoperatively. The impacts of mandibular setback and maxillary advancement amounts on the airway structures were evaluated and compared with other parameters. The results show that pharyngeal volume measurement means were found to be significantly increased postoperatively (P<0.05). No significant difference was observed in the mean values of minimum axial area and sleep parameters after the operation (P>0.05). A positive relationship was determined between the oropharyngeal volume and minimum axial area changes at a rate of 60% (r: 0.600). No relationship was revealed between airway volume changes and polysomnographic parameters. An increase in the total airway volume and no postoperative sleep-related disturbance symptoms were observed in the patients treated by maxillary advancement and mandibular setback surgery.

Abstract
Background: Bimaxillary orthognathic surgery bears the risk of severe postoperative airway complications. There are no clear recommendations for immediate postoperative follow-up and monitoring. Objective: to identify potential risk factors for prolonged mechanical ventilation and delayed extubation in patients undergoing bimaxillary orthognathic surgery. Methods: The data of all consecutive patients undergoing bimaxillary surgery between May 2012 and October 2019 were analyzed in a single-center retrospective cohort study. The clinical data were evaluated regarding baseline characteristics and potential factors linked with delayed extubation. Results: A total of 195 patients were included; 54.9% were female, and the median age was 23 years (IQR 5). The median body mass index was 23.1 (IQR 8). Nine patients (4.6%) were of American Society of Anesthesiologists Physical Status Classification System III or higher. The median duration of mechanical ventilation in the intensive care unit was 280 min (IQR, 526 min). Multivariable analysis revealed that premedication with benzodiazepines (odds ratio (OR) 2.60, 95% confidence interval (0.99; 6.81)), the male sex (OR 2.43, 95% confidence interval (1.10; 5.36)), and the duration of surgery (OR 1.54, 95% confidence interval (1.07; 2.23)) were associated with prolonged mechanical ventilation. By contrast, total intravenous anesthesia was associated with shorter ventilation time (OR 0.19, 95% confidence interval (0.09; 0.43)). Conclusion: premedication with benzodiazepines, the male sex, and the duration of surgery might be considered to be independent risk factors for delayed extubation in patients undergoing bimaxillary surgery.

Abstract
Objective This study was conducted to compare changes in pharyngeal airway after different orthognathic procedures in subjects with class III deformity. Methods The study included CBCT scans of 48 skeletal class III patients (29 females and 19 males, mean age 23.50 years) who underwent orthognathic surgery in conjunction with orthodontic treatment. The participants were divided into three groups of 16, as follows: Group 1, mandibular setback surgery; group 2, combined mandibular setback and maxillary advancement surgery; and group 3, maxillary advancement surgery. CBCT images were taken 1 day before surgery (T0), 1 day (T1), and 6 months (T2) later. The dimensions of the velopharynx, oropharynx, and hypopharynx were measured in CBCT images. Results In all groups, there was a significant decrease in airway variables immediately after surgery, with a significant reversal 6 months later (P < 0.05). In subjects who underwent maxillary advancement, the airway dimensions were significantly greater at T2 than the T0 time point (P < 0.05), whereas in the mandibular setback and bimaxillary surgery groups, the T2 values were lower than the baseline examination (P < 0.05). The alterations in airway variables were significantly different between the study groups (P < 0.05). Conclusions The mandibular setback procedure caused the greatest reduction in the pharyngeal airway, followed by the bimaxillary surgery and maxillary advancement groups, with the latter exhibiting an actual increase in the pharyngeal airway dimensions. It is recommended to prefer a two-jaw operation instead of a mandibular setback alone for correction of the prognathic mandible in subjects with predisposing factors to the development of sleep-disordered breathing.

Comparison of oropharyngeal airway dimensional changes in patients with skeletal Class II and Class III malocclusions after orthognathic surgery and functional appliance treatment: A systematic review. Saudi Dent J 2021; 33:860-868.

Abstract
Objective To compare the dimensional changes in the oropharyngeal airway in patients with skeletal Class II and Class III malocclusion before and after orthognathic surgery and treatment with a functional appliance. Methods The protocol was developed according to the Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-Analysis Protocols (PRISMA-P) and was registered to the International Prospective Register of Systematic Reviews (PROSPERO) under the registration number CRD42020170901. Furthermore, the reporting of the present SR was performed based on the PRISMA checklist. Results The use of removable functional appliances increased the volume of the oropharyngeal airway in patients with skeletal Class II malocclusion. Furthermore, the increase in the volume of the oropharyngeal airway following the removable functional appliance treatment was more than that observed after fixed functional appliance treatment in growing patients. For patients with skeletal Class III malocclusion, who underwent the bimaxillary orthognathic surgery, resulted in no change in the dimensions of the oropharyngeal airway. Conclusion Growing patients who receive removable functional appliance treatment have a more favorable long-term prognosis with regard to the oropharyngeal airway when compared with those who receive fixed functional appliance. Alternatively, in patients aged from (18–22) years with skeletal class III malocclusion Bimaxillary orthognathic surgery was found to be the recomended and superior method of treatment.

Abstract
This study aimed to analyze pharyngeal airflow characteristics and their relationship with the skeletal movement of the maxilla and mandible after bimaxillary orthognathic surgery in patients with skeletal class III (mandibular prognathism) malocclusion. Cone-beam computed tomography (CBCT) was conducted before surgery (T0), immediately after surgery (T1), and at least six months after surgery (T2). Digital imaging and communications in medicine files were transferred to InVivo (Anatomage) software to measure the skeletal changes after surgery. The changes in the maxillary and mandibular position, tongue position, and hyoid bone position were analyzed. Patient-specific models were reconstructed using 3D-Doctor software. The models after converting to the stereolithography (STL) file for Ansys integrated computer engineering and manufacturing code for computational fluid dynamics (ICEM CFD), commercial software were used for calculating the geometry, pressure drop and adjusted pressure coefficient value. The total volume of the upper airway including nasal cavity was reduced by 23% immediately after surgery and recovered to 92.2% of the initial volume six months after surgery. The airflow computation analysis showed a decrease in the pressure drop values immediately after surgery and six months after surgery. The adjusted pressure coefficients were slightly different but the change was statistically insignificant. The airflow characteristics computed using the computational fluid dynamics were correlated to the surgical changes. The surgical changes can affect the aerodynamics of the pharyngeal airway. In clinical practice, this knowledge is useful for developing a suitable orthognathic surgery treatment plan.

Abstract
The aim of this study was to evaluate volumetric changes of the posterior airway space (PAS) following bimaxillary surgery using a high oblique sagittal split osteotomy (HSSO) of the mandibular ramus. The cone beam CTs of Class II and Class III patients taken before (T0) and 6-12 months after surgery (T1) were analyzed using 3D software (Mimics® Innovation Suite 18.0). The PAS was divided into three segments (superior, middle, inferior) by three planes parallel to the Frankfurt horizontal plane intersecting at the posterior nasal spine, the velum palatinum and the epiglottis. Total (TPAS) and partial volumes (SPAS = superior, MPAS = middle, IPAS = inferior) were calculated. For the 25 Class II patients, a highly significant increase (p<0.001) of the total, middle and inferior airway space (TPAS: +33.6%, MPAS: +43.1%, IPAS: +55.9%) was found, while the increase of the upper airway space was statistically not significant (+5.4%, p = 0.074). For the 28 Class III patients, the total, middle and inferior airway space increased statistically insignificantly (TPAS: +4.6%, p = 0.265, MPAS: +2.7%, p = 0.387, IPAS: +2.8%, p = 0.495), while the increase of the upper airway space was statistically significant (+9.7%, p = 0.010). Bimaxillary orthognathic surgery using the HSSO technique led to a significant increase of PAS for Class II patients and could conserve the PAS for Class III patients.

Relationship between pharyngeal airway depth and ventilation condition in mandibular setback surgery: A computational fluid dynamics study. Orthod Craniofac Res 2020; 23:313-322.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES This study aimed to determine the anteroposterior depth (APD) of the pharyngeal airway (PA) where post-operative PA obstruction was predicted, using computer fluid dynamics (CFD), in order to prevent obstructive sleep apnoea after mandibular setback surgery. SETTINGS AND SAMPLE POPULATION Nineteen skeletal Class III patients (8 men; mean age, 26.7 years) who required mandibular setback surgery had computed tomography images taken before and 6 months after surgery. METHODS The APD of each site of the four cross-sectional reference planes (retropalatal airway [RA], second cervical vertebral airway, oropharyngeal airway and third cervical vertebral airway) were measured. The Maximum negative pressure (Pmax) of the PA was measured at inspiration using CFD, based on a three-dimensional PA model. Intersite differences were determined using analysis of variance and the Friedman test with Bonferroni correction. The relationship between APD and Pmax was evaluated by Spearman correlation coefficients and non-linear regression analysis. RESULTS The smallest PA site was the RA. Pmax was significantly correlated with the APD of the RA (rs = .628, P < .001). The relationship between Pmax and the APD-RA was fitted to a curve, which showed an inversely proportional relationship of Pmax to the square of the APD-RA. Pmax substantially increased even with a slight reduction of the APD-RA. In particular, when the APD-RA was 7 mm or less, Pmax increased greatly, suggesting that PA obstruction was more likely to occur. CONCLUSIONS The results of this study suggest that APD-RA is a useful predictor of good PA ventilation after surgery.

Postoperative complications after bimaxillary orthognathic surgery: A retrospective study with focus on postoperative ventilation strategies and posterior airway space (PAS). J Craniomaxillofac Surg 2019; 47:1848-1854. [PMID: 31810851 DOI: 10.1016/j.jcms.2019.11.007] [Citation(s) in RCA: 8] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.6] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 05/22/2019] [Revised: 08/29/2019] [Accepted: 11/18/2019] [Indexed: 02/08/2023] Open
Abstract
PURPOSE The aim of this study was to evaluate the impact of extubation time on postoperative complications in patients undergoing bimaxillary orthognathic surgery. We therefore retrospectively compared the effect of early extubating (EE) in the operating room versus delayed extubating (LE) on the intensive care unit (ICU) regarding postoperative complications and length of ICU/hospital stay (LOICUS/LOHS). Furthermore, we analyzed the influence of the PAS change on postoperative complications. METHODS The clinical data of 117 patients were retrospective analyzed regarding postoperative complications using Clavian-Dindo Classification. Volumetric calculations of the pre- and postoperative PAS were conducted using ITK-SNAP software. The Fisher's exact test was performed to evaluate the significance of differences between categorical variables. Continuous variables were analyzed using the Mann-Whitney U-Test or the Kruskal-Wallis one-way analysis of variance. Regression analysis was used estimating predictors for postoperative complications. RESULTS EE led to significant shortening of LOICUS (p < 0.001) and LOHS (p = 0.023). In total, we recorded 38 complications (minor n = 30; major n = 8) within the hospital stay. Complication rates were without significant differences with respect to the postoperative ventilation strategy. Large changes in PAS volume led to an increase in the major complication rates (p = 0.031). Increase or decrease of PAS was independent from postoperative complication rates (p = 1.000). Higher body mass index (p = 0.04) and a higher ASA PS score (p = 0.016) were associated with increased major complication rates. CONCLUSION Early extubation after surgery is a safe procedure and is associated with a reduced LOICUS and LOHS. Complications seem to occur more frequently in marked changes of the PAS and should be considered in perioperative risk stratification.

Silent Changes in Sleep Quality Following Mandibular Setback Surgery in Patients with Skeletal Class III Malocclusion: A Prospective Study. Sci Rep 2019; 9:9737. [PMID: 31278306 PMCID: PMC6611882 DOI: 10.1038/s41598-019-46166-z] [Citation(s) in RCA: 6] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.2] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 01/10/2019] [Accepted: 06/17/2019] [Indexed: 11/23/2022] Open
Abstract
Mandibular setback surgery (MSS) for skeletal class III patients can result in a relative reduction of pharyngeal airway space (PAS). Consequently, there is a possibility of the decline of sleep quality after surgery. We investigated changes in sleep quality measured by overnight polysomnography (PSG) and the three-dimensional (3D) volumes of PAS following MSS with or without Le Fort I osteotomy (LF I) in class III patients (N = 53). Overnight PSG and cone beam computed tomography were conducted at preoperative stage (T0) and postoperative 3 months (T1). Measurements of PAS volumes were performed, and the subjective symptoms of sleep were evaluated by self-questionnaires. There were significant increases in respiratory disturbance index (RDI) and total respiratory effort-related arousal (RERA) index during T0-T1. The 3D volumes of PAS showed significant decreases in the oropharyngeal airway, hypopharyngeal airway, and total airway spaces. No significant changes were observed in subjective symptoms of sleep. MSS with or without LF I for class III patients could worsen sleep quality by increasing sleep parameters such as the RDI and RERA in PSG, and reduce volumes of PAS at postoperative 3 months. Although subjective symptoms may not show significant changes, objective sleep quality in PSG might decrease after MSS.

The association of OSAS and uvula: the role of MRI in this egg-chicken problem in OSAS. Sleep Breath 2019; 24:465-470. [PMID: 31240544 DOI: 10.1007/s11325-019-01879-3] [Citation(s) in RCA: 1] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.2] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/06/2019] [Revised: 06/13/2019] [Accepted: 06/14/2019] [Indexed: 12/20/2022]
Abstract
PURPOSE Obstructive sleep apnea syndrome (OSAS) is a condition resulting from repetitive partial or complete upper airway obstruction, and its etiology remains uncertain. Polysomnography is the gold standard diagnostic test for OSAS. However, there are long wait times for this evaluation, so questionnaires or ancillary diagnostic methods are used to select appropriate patients. One of these is magnetic resonance imaging (MRI). The present study aimed to investigate the association between clinical features of OSAS and uvular changes on MRI. MATERIALS AND METHODS A total of 102 participants, 80 with OSAS and 22 controls, were included in the study. All participants underwent full-night polysomnography, MRI, and anthropometric measurements. RESULTS In comparisons of MRI measurements of the uvula, statistically significant differences in uvular length, thickness, and angle were observed between the OSAS and control groups. MRI measurement significantly associated with apnea-hypopnea index was uvular thickness. Evaluation of anthropometric and MRI measurements revealed statistically significant associations between waist circumference and uvular thickness, uvular width, and oropharyngeal space among the OSAS patients. CONCLUSION Thickened uvula on MRI is associated with the presence of OSAS, and its thickness is well correlated with the severity of the diseases. Thus, it may be a reliable indicator of OSAS and could be used as a supportive finding to identify patients suitable for referral for diagnostic polysomnography.
