[Surgical treatment of a patient with mandibular micrognathia accompanied by obstructive sleep apnea syndrome using extended genioplasty].

Abstract

A method for diagnosing, planning and surgical treatment of patients with micrognathia of the mandible with physiological occlusion is proposed, which makes it possible to objectively assess the severity of the anomaly and concomitant functional disorders of external respiration in the nasopharynx and oropharynx, as well as to identify the pathophysiological mechanisms of obstructive sleep apnea syndrome (OSAS) and develop an optimal surgical treatment plan with high functional and aesthetic results.
