A procedure for stabilization of the proximal segment after vertical osteotomy of the mandibular ramus for apertognathia and micrognathia.

A supplemental technique has been presented for stabilization of the proximal segments after bilateral oblique osteotomies of the mandibular rami for the treatment of micrognathia and apertognathia. This procedure stabilizes the condylar segments in all planes. Since the medial plate of bone is not violated in creating the depression, it acts as a medial stop while the rest of it prevents the condyle from moving inferiorly and anteriorly. The wire prevents movement of the condyle laterally and posteriorly.

Ameloblastoma of the anterior maxillae.

Few generalizations may be made about the ameloblastoma. Its many varied characteristics may mimic those of many other lesions. The case presented, against all odds and expectations, proved to be highly infiltrative. The use of all available information for accurate diagnosis and sound treatment is stressed. Block resection was found to be the best treatment assuring no recurrence and minimal deformity.
