65
Q

Severe soft-tissue deficit is best addressed by choosing
distraction for the mandible

A

T

66
Q

Which technique is better to address the soft tissue defect?

A

Adipofascial free flaps have been associated with ptosis and
less predictable volume over time with patient weight loss or
gain. There is currently an increasing trend for serial fat injection to treat facial soft-tissue deficit because this is less likely
to undergo ptosis and patients can be regrafted with much less
morbidity

67
Q

Latency period

A

Approximately 1 week (5-7 days) is allowed for healing and
initial callus formation in the distraction zone prior to initiation of distraction

68
Q

How much is the distraction rate?

A

The distraction hardware is used to separate the bony segments at some predetermined rate (usually 0.5 mm twice per
day)

69
Q

theconsolidation period

This period is usually 8 weeks in length
in infants, theconsolidation period is often

of vector

A

T

98
Q

The intracranial volume gained by posterior vault distraction is markedly higher
when compared with fronto-orbital advancement

A

T

99
Q

adequate bony stock in the body with a deficient or absent ramus dictates a vertical vector (perpendicular to the occlusal plane), whereas the converse (short body but adequate ramus) dictates a horizontal
vector

A

T

100
Q

Ifboth the body and ramus are deficient, an oblique vector can
be chosen.

A

T

101
Q

Q

the complication rate appears to be comparable between Distraction of the cranial vault, and the posterior vault

A

T

103
Q

There are three phases-latency (4-5 days), distraction
( 4-6 weeks, or until the desired amount of advancement is
obtained), and consolidation (6-8 weeks).

104
Q

isolated microtia may serve as a useful marker for what?
