  • Title: Effects of orthognathic surgery on nasal form and function in the cleft patient.
    Author: Wolford LM.
    Journal: Cleft Palate Craniofac J; 1992 Nov; 29(6):546-55. PubMed ID: 1450196.
    Abstract:
    Management of common problems of nasal airway obstruction in cleft and noncleft patients by the subnasal approach through the maxillary Le Fort I osteotomy are discussed. The effects of maxillary surgical repositioning on the esthetics of the nose and upper lip are presented, as well as the sequencing and timing of orthognathic surgery and nasal reconstruction in the cleft patient. Case presentations illustrate the results of this treatment approach.
