Abstract
OBJECTIVES This study aims to evaluate the potential benefits of combining tongue reduction with mandibular setback surgery in patients undergoing class III orthognathic surgery. Specifically, we investigated whether this combined approach reduced the risk of surgical relapse, condylar resorption, and airway space reduction by mitigating tongue pressure on the mandible. MATERIAL AND METHODS The study retrospectively enrolled patients who had undergone bilateral sagittal split ramus osteotomy (BSSRO) with at least 5 mm of setback and met the criteria of a body mass index > 20 kg/m2 and tongue volume > 100 mm3. The study included 20 patients with 10 in the tongue reduction group (TR, n = 10) and 10 in the BSSRO only group (SO, n = 10). RESULTS The volumetric changes of the total airway space were significantly different between the TR and SO groups (p = 0.028). However, no significant differences were observed in the condylar resorption and postoperative relapse between the groups (p = 0.927 and 0.913, respectively). The difference between the resorption of the anterior and posterior segments of the condyle was also statistically insignificant (p = 0.826). Postoperative counterclockwise rotation of the proximal segment only demonstrated a significant correlation with postoperative relapse (p = 0.048). CONCLUSIONS The reduction in tongue volume demonstrated a preventive effect on the reduction of the airway space after mandibular setback, although it did not yield statistical significance concerning surgical relapse and condylar volume. The counterclockwise rotation of the proximal segment might be responsible for the forward displacement of the distal segment and postoperative relapse. However, the clinical implications of this finding should be interpreted with caution owing to the limited sample size CLINICAL RELEVANCE: Tongue reduction could potentially serve as a preventive measure in preserving the airway space and might be beneficial in mitigating the risk of obstructive sleep apnea in patients with class III deformity.

Abstract
Objectives This retrospective cohort study aimed to analyze volumes of craniomaxillofacial bone and masticatory muscles of young adults with bilateral idiopathic condylar resorption. Methods This was a retrospective cohort study of 84 adults with bilateral idiopathic condylar resorption (BCR) and 48 adults with normal temporal-mandibular joint (TMJ) matched for age and sex (mean age, 23.2 ± 3.6 years). The volumes of craniomaxillofacial bone and masticatory muscles, as well as intercondylar angle were measured. Unpaired t-tests and Pearson correlation tests were applied to analyze the data. Multivariable linear regression models were used to estimate the association between bilateral condylar volume and volumes of craniomaxillofacial bone and masticatory muscles adjusted for age, sex, and disc status. Results Compared to the control group, the BCR group displayed significant decreased volumes of craniomaxillofacial bone (p < 0.001), craniomaxillofacial bone without mandible (p < 0.001), mandible (p < 0.001), mandible without mandibular condylar process (p < 0.001), bilateral masseter muscle (p < 0.001) and bilateral temporalis muscle (p < 0.001), as well as the intercondylar angle (p < 0.001). These variables were significantly correlated to the volume of mandibular condylar process (0.5< r < 0.8; p < 0.001). By linear regression analyses, significant associations were found for the bilateral condylar volume with craniomaxillofacial bone volume and mandible bone volume. Conclusions Young adults with BCR displayed smaller volumes of craniomaxillofacial skeleton and masticatory muscles, and smaller intercondylar angle than the normal patients. The craniofacial musculoskeletal volume and intercondylar angle are associated with mandibular condylar process volume.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES Among the existing techniques for the correction of mandibular posterior vertical insufficiency (PVI), the intra-oral ramus vertical lengthening osteotomy (IORVLO) can be proposed as it allows simultaneous correction of mandibular height and retrusion. This study assessed the 3D morpho-anatomical changes of the ramus-condyle unit and occlusal stability after IORVLO. MATERIALS AND METHODS This retrospective analysis compared immediate and 1-year post-operative 3D CBCT reconstructions. The analysis focused on the condylar height (primary endpoint) and on the changes in condylar (condylar diameter, condylar axis angle) and mandibular (ramus height, Frankfort-mandibular plane angle, gonion position, intergonial distance, angular remodeling) parameters. Additionally, this analysis investigated the maxillary markers and occlusal stability. RESULTS On the 38 condyles studied in 21 included patients (mean age 23.7 ± 3.9 years), a condylar height (CH) loss of 0.66 mm (p < 0,03) was observed, with no correlation with the degree of ramus lengthening (mean 13.3 ± 0.76 mm). Only one patient presented an occlusal relapse of Class II, but a 3.4 mm (28%) condylar diameter loss and a 33% condylar volume reduction with loss of 1 mm and 3.4 mm in CH and condyle diameter, respectively. A mean 3.56 mm (p < 0.001) decrease in ramus height was noted, mainly due to bone resorption in the mandibular angles. CONCLUSION This study confirms the overall stability obtained with IORVLO for the correction of PVI. CLINICAL RELEVANCE This study aims to precise indication of IORVLO, and to validate the clinical and anatomical stability of results.

Abstract
The aim of this study was to investigate the characteristics of condylar resorption in craniofacial microsomia (CFM) patients following mandibular distraction osteogenesis (MDO). Patients with unilateral type-IIa and type-IIb CFM, who had completed MDO and mandibular distractor extraction (MDE), were recruited. The height and volume of the condyle were measured on three-dimension models created by the analysis of computed tomography (CT) data. Normality analysis was performed using the Shapiro-Wilk test. Data for the affected and unaffected sides were compared using the paired t-test or Wilcoxon signed-rank test. Data for both type-IIa and type-IIb CFM were compared using the independent-samples t-test or Mann-Whitney U test. The Pearson or Spearman correlation was used to determine the correlations of condylar resorption rate with related measurements. In total, 48 type-IIa and 48 type-IIb CFM patients were included. The condylar resorption rate in type-IIa CFM (0.35 ± 0.32) was significantly associated with the height of the condyle (r = 0.776, p < 0.001) and distraction distance (r = 0.447, p = 0.001), while the condylar resorption rate in type-IIb CFM (0.49 ± 0.46) was significantly associated with the height of the condyle (r = 0.924, p < 0.001). However, there was no significant difference in condylar resorption rate between type-IIa and type-IIb CFM (p = 0.075). In addition to occlusal changes, no other negative symptoms of the TMJ were observed with condylar resorption. Condylar resorption was evident in CFM patients following mandibular distraction osteogenesis, and the condylar resorption rate showed a relationship with distraction distance and condylar height.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES To evaluate postoperative mandibular stability and condylar changes in patients with mandibular hypoplasia and preoperative condylar resorption (CR) undergoing orthognathic surgery. MATERIALS AND METHODS Fifty-four patients were included in this retrospective study. Computed tomography (CT) scans were acquired preoperatively (T0), 2-7 days immediate postoperatively (T1), and at least 1 year postoperatively (T2). Three-dimensional (3D) cephalometric analysis and measurements of condylar angle, volume, and position (joint spaces) were performed. A 2-mm mandibular relapse was deemed clinically acceptable. We also analyzed the correlations between relapse and postoperative CR and susceptible factors using a multivariate logistic regression model. RESULTS The results showed one year after the surgery, the average mandibular relapse was 1.0 mm (p < 0.05), and the average reduction of condylar volume was 152.4 mm3 (12.7%). Condyle-fossa relationships were improved immediately after the surgery, with a tendency of returning to their original state in the follow-up (p < 0.05). Anteroposterior advancement at point B (B-CP advancement) at T1 and superior joint space (SJS) at T0 were significantly correlated with mandibular relapse, and postoperative CR was mainly associated with vertical increasement at point B (B-AP increasement) at T1. The optimal cut-off values were as follows: 1.6 mm for SJS, 4.2 mm for B-CP advancement, and 1.8 mm for B-AP increasement. Concomitant advancement Genioplasty showed no significant correlation with relapse and postoperative CR. CONCLUSIONS While patients with mandibular hypoplasia and preoperative CR were vulnerable to further condylar resorption after mandibular advancement, the treatment outcomes were generally clinically acceptable. Postoperative relapse was associated with a larger than 4.2 mm of mandibular advancement measured at B-CP and a larger than 1.6 mm of superior joint space measured at SJS, and postoperative CR was associated with a larger than 1.8 mm of mandibular vertical increasement measured at B-AP. CLINICAL RELEVANCE The findings of this study suggested that the mandibular advancement might be limited to 5 mm for patients with preoperative CR. A concomitant advancement genioplasty might also be considered to achieve a better facial profile in these patients.

Abstract
Objective Condylar resorption (CR) is one of the major post-surgical complications of orthognathic surgery. This systematic review (SR) aimed to evaluate epidemiological data, risk factors, and therapeutical management of CR. Methods Six databases were screened by two investigators until September 2020 to obtain all SRs. After reading the titles and abstracts, eligible SRs were determined and data extraction was performed. Using the latest version of A Measurement Tool to Assess Systematic Reviews, the methodological quality of the included SRs was determined. Results Ten SRs with low or critically-low methodological quality were included in this review. Mandibular hypoplasia on the sagittal plane and hyperdivergent growth pattern on the vertical plane were the most common skeletal alterations in which CR could occur after orthognathic surgery. Post-operative condylar changes were analyzed both on two-dimensional and three-dimensional (3D) radiographic examinations. The incidence of CR was not related to the fixation method. Based on the severity of the pathological conditions, management of CR can include conservative or surgical therapy. Conclusions Despite the limited evidence in literature, CR is considered a consequence of orthognathic surgery. However, an accurate diagnosis of CR and a better orthognathic surgical planning must include 3D radiographic examinations to improve pre- and post-surgical comparison. Well-designed studies with long-term follow-up and 3D data are needed to clarify the findings of this analysis..

Abstract
Condylar resorption (CR) after surgical orthognathic treatment is defined as dysfunctional remodeling of the temporomandibular joint manifested by morphological changes with decreased condylar head volume that cause occlusal and esthetic changes. Although both conservative and surgical treatment strategies have been employed for the treatment of CR, effective procedures have not been established till date. In this study, the effects of MSC-CM on CR were investigated. Bone marrow-derived MSCs of rats (rMSCs) were cultured until 80% confluent, cultured in serum-free conditioned medium for 48 h; the collected medium was defined as MSC-CM. Osteogenesis, chondrogenesis, and angiogenesis-related gene expression in rMSCs cultured with MSC-CM was evaluated by quantitative real-time polymerase chain reaction. A rat CR model was used for animal studies, in which CR occurred after mandibular distraction osteogenesis for 10 days. MSC-CM was injected via the tail vein and quantitative and qualitative evaluations were performed by micro-computed tomography (micro-CT) and histology. MSC-CM enhanced osteogenesis-, chondrogenesis-, and angiogenesis-related gene expression in rMSCs. Micro-CT showed CR in control groups; however, it was observed to be improved in the MSC-CM group. Histologically, an enlarged cartilage layer was seen in the MSC-CM group, while cartilage layers had almost thinned or disappeared in control groups. These results indicate that MSC-CM improved CR.

Abstract
Condylar resorption of temporomandibular joint findings in the panoramic radiographs is an indication of bone resorption suggesting possible degenerative joint disease that warrants early screen and subsequent referral to a dedicated specialist. This case series reports three patients that underwent the active orthodontic treatment for the duration of approximately 24-36 months. The patients were asymptomatic at the initial examination. The clinical examination was negative for clicking; the range of motion on opening, lateral excursion, and protrusion was normal. Neither of these patients had a history of rheumatic disease or bruxism. During the later stages of orthodontic treatment, two of the three patients reported mild pain and clicking during mastication, which was also confirmed chairside on clinical evaluation. Patients were referred to the orofacial pain specialist, were they were prescribed specific medication for the symptoms, along with cognitive behavioral therapy, and were further evaluated for splint therapy. Panoramic radiographs taken before the start of the treatment, during the treatment and at the completion of the orthodontic treatments indicate the progression in the resorption of mandibular condyle in all three patients suggesting possible degeneration that warrants further investigation and therapy.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES To evaluate the influence of experimentally induced progressive condylar resorption (PCR) on temporomandibular joint (TMJ) mechanoreception. MATERIALS AND METHODS Twenty 13-week-old male albino Wistar rats were divided equally into control and PCR groups. A compressive force was loaded on the left TMJ of PCR group rats to induce condylar resorption. Single-unit activities of TMJ mechanoreceptors were also induced through passive jaw movement. Recording was performed for the left Gasserian ganglion at 3 days and 1 week after the establishment of PCR group. The effects of PCR on TMJ units were assessed by measuring the firing threshold, maximum instantaneous firing frequency, and average firing frequency. RESULTS Compared with the control group, there were no significant differences in the firing threshold of the PCR group after 3 days. The thresholds were significantly higher 1 week after compressive force loading on the condyle. The maximum instantaneous firing frequencies and the average firing frequencies showed no significant differences after 3 days. However, these were significantly lower 1 week after compressive force loading. CONCLUSIONS The findings suggest that compressive force loading on the condyle may influence the function of TMJ mechanoreceptors.

Abstract
The aim of this study was to assess condylar resorption, spatial change in glenoid cavity, and its risk factors after mandibular advancement by three-dimensional volumetric analysis. Subjects consisted of 30 condyles of 15 patients diagnosed with mandibular retrognathism who underwent Le Fort I and bilateral sagittal split ramus osteotomy advancement. CBCT images were taken before surgery (T0), immediately after surgery (T1), and postoperatively at 6 months (T2) and 1 year (T3). Condylar resorption was observed in 21 condyles. The posterior was the most affected region, while the anterior was the least affected. The volume of the glenoid cavity was significantly increased after surgery regardless of the presence or absence of resorption. However, the cavity recovered close to its original volume over time. At 1 year after surgery, the volume was not significantly different from the preoperative volume. Counterclockwise rotation of the proximal segment was found to be a risk factor affecting resorption based on correlation analysis. Mandibular advancement appeared to generate excessive mechanical stress on the posterior condyle, and might be responsible for the resorption. Counterclockwise rotation might have added stress to the region. Articular spatial change was transient and did not appear to be related to condyle resorption.

Abstract
The aim of this study is to introduce a surgical technique that can maintain blood supply to prevent condylar resorption in the extracorporeal reduction of condylar fracture. Neither the medial pterygoid muscle on the ramal bone nor the lateral pterygoid muscle on the condylar fragment was detached after vertical ramal osteotomy. Thus, reduction was performed in the intracorporeal state. Therefore, blood supply was expected to be maintained to the fragments of both the condylar and ramal bones. On postoperative radiographs, the anatomical outline of the fractured condyle was well restored, and the occlusion was stable. In the unilateral case, there were no signs of mandibular condylar resorption until postoperative 3 weeks. In the 2 bilateral cases, condylar displacements with plate fractures and screw loosening were observed at postoperative 1 month or 5 months, but radiodensity at the displaced fracture site increased during the follow-up period. Finally, complete remodeling of the condylar fragments with restored anatomic appearance was observed on 8-month or 2-year follow-up radiographs. All cases exhibited good healing aspects with no signs or symptoms of mandibular condylar dysfunction during the postoperative remodeling period after intracorporeal reduction of condylar fracture.
