Abstract
Surgeons face difficulties achieving simultaneous lip height and width symmetry while repairing unilateral complete cleft lip, so one is often sacrificed at the expense of the other. The aim of this study was to evaluate the effect of growth on lip height and width symmetry, to guide the surgeon to the best decision. The study patients (N = 105) were divided into two groups based on the treatment method: 42 were treated with the modified rotational advancement technique (MRA group) and 63 with the Millard rotation-advancement technique (RA group). Furthermore, based on lip height and width symmetry at 6 months postoperative, the patients were divided into three groups: 38 with symmetrical lip height and width (SL), 41 with horizontal lip width more symmetrical than lip height (RAW), and 26 with vertical lip height more symmetrical than lip width (RAH). Measurements were taken preoperatively (T0), 6 months (T1) and 5 years (T2) postoperatively. The MRA group had significantly more symmetrical lip height than the RA group at T1 (P = 0.003) and T2 (P = 0.002); however no statistically significant difference in lip width symmetry was observed between the two groups. In relation to the effects of growth, only lip width symmetry in the RAH group improved significantly between T1 and T2 (P = 0.023). In conclusion the improvement in lip width symmetry following 5 years of postoperative growth did not achieve the same symmetry as when lip width symmetry was achieved intraoperatively. Thus, the MRA technique could be used to obtain intraoperative symmetry of lip height and width.

Three-dimensional condylar displacement and remodelling in patients with asymmetrical mandibular prognathism following bilateral sagittal split osteotomy. Int J Oral Maxillofac Surg 2021; 51:509-517.

Abstract
This study aims to assess the postoperative condylar displacement and the long-term condylar remodelling in patients with mandibular prognathism with transverse asymmetry after bilateral sagittal split ramus osteotomy (BSSRO). Forty-one consecutive patients (82 condyles) with a transverse mandibular asymmetry of more than 4 mm without occlusal canting treated by BSSRO were included. The preoperative (T1), immediate postoperative (T2) and long-term follow-up of an average of 16.2 months (T3) spiral computed tomography scans were gathered and processed to measure the condylar displacement and remodelling based on cranial base voxel-based and rigid regional registrations. The statistical analysis revealed that the majority of condyles (T1-T2) were transitionally displaced forwards, downwards and laterally, and were not fully returned to the preoperative position at T3. Condylar lateral displacement was significantly higher on the deviated side (DS) (P = 0.035). Non-deviated side (NDS) condyles were mainly subjected to upward pitch, medial yaw and medial roll compared with downward pitch, lateral yaw and lateral roll on DS. Condylar remodelling at T3 was observed, with the superior and posterior surfaces commonly subjected to bone resorption, whereas the anterior and medial surfaces were commonly subjected to bone apposition. Condylar volumetric changes were relatively comparable on NDS (3 ± 85.2 mm3) and DS (8.3 ± 111.7 mm3) condyles. Age, amount of preoperative asymmetry and follow-up period were not correlated with the condylar remodelling. Transitional and rotational displacements were to some extent significantly correlated with the condylar remodelling on both sides. Consequently, passive condylar seating without torque might prevent the long-term unfavourable condylar remodelling.

Abstract
The aim of this study was to compare postoperative complications and facial nerve (FN) recovery rates between conventional superficial parotidectomy (CSP) and partial superficial parotidectomy (PSP) as surgical treatment for benign parotid tumours. A prospective study was conducted on 55 consecutive patients who underwent either CSP (n=35) or PSP (n=20) for benign parotid tumours. The primary outcomes were FN injury, FN recovery rates, and Frey syndrome. Secondary outcomes were operative time, hospital stay, sialocele, haematoma, and auricular numbness. The degree of FN injury was evaluated at 1 week, 1, 3, 6, and 12 months postoperative using the House-Brackmann grading system. Frey syndrome was assessed using a subjective clinical questionnaire and objective Minor starch-iodine test. No patient in either group experienced permanent FN paralysis. There was a significantly higher incidence of temporary FN weakness in the CSP group (P=0.007). The respective FN recovery rates at 1, 3, 6, and 12 months were 60%, 88.6%, 94.3%, and 100% in the CSP group and 90%, 95%, 100%, and 100% in the PSP group. No significant difference was observed between the groups regarding the incidence of Frey syndrome, sialocele, and haematoma. The operative time and hospital stay were both shorter in the PSP group. Although the PSP is a more conservative procedure with significantly reduced FN injury, operative time, and hospital stay compared to CSP, the CSP procedure shows a comparable FN recovery rate to the PSP.
