RESUMEN
The vascularized periosteal free flap transposes a non-irradiated soft tissue with neoangiogenesis, bone induction, and osteogenesis qualities. A surgical technique using a humeral periosteal free flap is described for the treatment of recurrent osteoradionecrosis of the lower jaw. The humeral periosteal free flap is a technique associated with low morbidity. The procedure described avoids sacrificing major vessels as seen in other common flap procedures. Hence, this revascularization approach is equivalent to a prevention technique that should be considered early in the development of osteoradionecrosis to avoid further damage and challenging reconstruction.
RESUMEN
OBJECTIVES: Primary chronic Non-Bacterial Osteomyelitis of the jaw is a rare auto-inflammatory disease of unknown aetiology that bears pathophysiological resemblance to both the synovitis, acne, pustulosis, hyperostosis, and osteitis (SAPHO) syndrome in adults and chronic recurrent multifocal osteomyelitis (CRMO) in children. Both SAPHO and CRMO respond to TNF-alpha blockade. Previously reported treatment regimens in CNOM including non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs, corticosteroids, antibiotics, anti-resorptive therapy, and surgery all bear disappointing results. TNF- α blockade is suggested as a treatment option by some experts but this is not backed by any clinical data.We sought to retrospectively and exhaustively report our experience of anti-TNF alpha therapy in refractory CNOM. METHODS: Fifteen patients with refractory CNOM and high disease burden were referred to our centre. TNF- α blockade was attempted in 10 cases, given its efficacy in neighbouring diseases, its good tolerance profile and failure of previous treatment strategiesWe herein retrospectively report detailed outcomes for all patients having received anti-TNF alpha therapy for this indication in our centre. RESULTS: TNF-α-targeting therapy resulted in a rapid and sustained remission in a majority of patients with CNOM, without serious adverse events. Treatment was tapered and stopped without relapse in some patients despite a refractory course of several years. Male sex seems to be associated with a poorer outcome. CONCLUSION: Our results suggest that blocking TNF-α is efficient and safe in CNOM.
RESUMEN
OBJECTIVES: Segmentation of anatomical structures on dento-maxillo-facial (DMF) computed tomography (CT) or cone beam computed tomography (CBCT) scans is increasingly needed in digital dentistry. The main aim of this research was to propose and evaluate a novel open source tool called DentalSegmentator for fully automatic segmentation of five anatomical structures on DMF CT and CBCT scans: maxilla/upper skull, mandible, upper teeth, lower teeth, and the mandibular canal. METHODS: A retrospective sample of 470 CT and CBCT scans was used as a training/validation set. The performance and generalizability of the tool was evaluated by comparing segmentations provided by experts and automatic segmentations in two hold-out test datasets: an internal dataset of 133 CT and CBCT scans acquired before orthognathic surgery and an external dataset of 123 CBCT scans randomly sampled from routine examinations in 5 institutions. RESULTS: The mean overall results in the internal test dataset (n = 133) were a Dice similarity coefficient (DSC) of 92.2 ± 6.3 % and a normalised surface distance (NSD) of 98.2 ± 2.2 %. The mean overall results on the external test dataset (n = 123) were a DSC of 94.2 ± 7.4 % and a NSD of 98.4 ± 3.6 %. CONCLUSIONS: The results obtained from this highly diverse dataset demonstrate that this tool can provide fully automatic and robust multiclass segmentation for DMF CT and CBCT scans. To encourage the clinical deployment of DentalSegmentator, the pre-trained nnU-Net model has been made publicly available along with an extension for the 3D Slicer software. CLINICAL SIGNIFICANCE: DentalSegmentator open source 3D Slicer extension provides a free, robust, and easy-to-use approach to obtaining patient-specific three-dimensional models from CT and CBCT scans. These models serve various purposes in a digital dentistry workflow, such as visualization, treatment planning, intervention, and follow-up.

The study aimed to evaluate and discuss the use of an innovative PSI made of porous hydroxyapatite, with interconnected porosity promoting osteointegration, called MyBone Custom® implant (MBCI), for maxillofacial bone reconstruction. A multicentric cohort of 13 patients underwent maxillofacial bone reconstruction surgery using MBCIs for various applications, from genioplasty to orbital floor reconstruction, including zygomatic and mandibular bone reconstruction, both for segmental defects and bone augmentation. The mean follow-up period was 9 months (1-22 months). No infections, displacements, or postoperative fractures were reported. Perioperative modifications of the MBCIs were possible when necessary. Additionally, surgeons reported significant time saved during surgery. For patients with postoperative CT scans, osteointegration signs were visible at the 6-month postoperative follow-up control, and continuous osteointegration was observed after 1 year. The advantages and disadvantages compared with current techniques used are discussed. MBCIs offer new bone reconstruction possibilities with long-term perspectives, while precluding the drawbacks of titanium and PEEK. The low level of postoperative complications associated with the high osteointegration potential of MBCIs paves the way to more extensive use of this new hydroxyapatite PSI in maxillofacial bone reconstruction.

OBJECTIVE: This study aimed to evaluate the long-term stability of surgical maxillary expansion using patient-specific fixation implants (PSFIs) without intraoral retention. MATERIALS AND METHODS: Fifteen patients who had undergone segmented Le Fort I osteotomy and PSFIs with available preoperative (t0) early (t1) and 1-year follow-up computed tomography (CT) scans (t2) were evaluated. The early and 1-year 3D models were superimposed to transfer the bony landmarks; the distances between each pair of landmarks at the different time points were then measured. The distances between the canines and second molars were also measured directly on the CT scans. RESULTS: The achieved maxillary expansions ranged from a median of 4.39 (2.00-6.27) mm at the greater palatine foramina to a median of 2.14 (1.56-2 > 83) mm at the canine level of the palatal bone. One year postoperatively, the changes in skeletal diameters ranged from a median of - 0.53 (- 1.65 to 0.41) mm at the greater palatine foramina (p = 0.12) to 0.17 (- 0.09 to 0.32) mm at the canine level of the palatal bone (p = 0.56). Changes in dental arch diameters ranged from a median of - 0.6 (- 2 to 0.00) mm between the second molars to - 1.3 (- 1.8 to - 0.25) mm between the canines (P < 0.05). CONCLUSION: This study showed the stability of maxillary expansion osteotomy using PSFIs, even without postoperative intraoral retention. CLINICAL RELEVANCE: PSFIs are a reliable method for the surgical treatment of transverse maxillary discrepancy. PFSIs are easy-to-use and improve surgical accuracy.

This study assesses the efficacy of Geriatric Assessment (GA)-driven interventions and follow-up on six-month mortality, functional, and nutritional status in older patients with head and neck cancer (HNC). HNC patients aged 65 years or over were included between November 2013 and September 2018 by 15 Ear, Nose, and Throat (ENT) and maxillofacial surgery departments at 13 centers in France. The study was of an open-label, multicenter, randomized, controlled, and parallel-group design, with independent outcome assessments. The patients were randomized 1:1 to benefit from GA-driven interventions and follow-up versus standard of care. The interventions consisted in a pre-therapeutic GA, a standardized geriatric intervention, and follow-up, tailored to the cancer-treatment plan for 24 months. The primary outcome was a composite criterion including six-month mortality, functional impairment (fall in the Activities of Daily Living (ADL) score ≥2), and weight loss ≥10%. Among the patients included (n = 499), 475 were randomized to the experimental (n = 238) or control arm (n = 237). The median age was 75.3 years [70.4-81.9]; 69.5% were men, and the principal tumor site was oral cavity (43.9%). There were no statistically significant differences regarding the primary endpoint (n = 98 events; 41.0% in the experimental arm versus 90 (38.0%); p = 0.53), or for each criterion (i.e., death (31 (13%) versus 27 (11.4%); p = 0.48), weight loss of ≥10% (69 (29%) versus 65 (27.4%); p = 0.73) and fall in ADL score ≥2 (9 (3.8%) versus 13 (5.5%); p = 0.35)). In older patients with HNC, GA-driven interventions and follow-up failed to improve six-month overall survival, functional, and nutritional status.
RESUMEN
OBJECTIVES: To evaluate the performance of the nnU-Net open-source deep learning framework for automatic multi-task segmentation of craniomaxillofacial (CMF) structures in CT scans obtained for computer-assisted orthognathic surgery. METHODS: Four hundred and fifty-three consecutive patients having undergone high-resolution CT scans before orthognathic surgery were randomly distributed among a training/validation cohort (n = 300) and a testing cohort (n = 153). The ground truth segmentations were generated by 2 operators following an industry-certified procedure for use in computer-assisted surgical planning and personalized implant manufacturing. Model performance was assessed by comparing model predictions with ground truth segmentations. Examination of 45 CT scans by an industry expert provided additional evaluation. The model's generalizability was tested on a publicly available dataset of 10 CT scans with ground truth segmentation of the mandible. RESULTS: In the test cohort, mean volumetric Dice similarity coefficient (vDSC) and surface Dice similarity coefficient at 1 mm (sDSC) were 0.96 and 0.97 for the upper skull, 0.94 and 0.98 for the mandible, 0.95 and 0.99 for the upper teeth, 0.94 and 0.99 for the lower teeth, and 0.82 and 0.98 for the mandibular canal. Industry expert segmentation approval rates were 93% for the mandible, 89% for the mandibular canal, 82% for the upper skull, 69% for the upper teeth, and 58% for the lower teeth. CONCLUSION: While additional efforts are required for the segmentation of dental apices, our results demonstrated the model's reliability in terms of fully automatic segmentation of preoperative orthognathic CT scans. KEY POINTS: ⢠The nnU-Net deep learning framework can be trained out-of-the-box to provide robust fully automatic multi-task segmentation of CT scans performed for computer-assisted orthognathic surgery planning. ⢠The clinical viability of the trained nnU-Net model is shown on a challenging test dataset of 153 CT scans randomly selected from clinical practice, showing metallic artifacts and diverse anatomical deformities. ⢠Commonly used biomedical segmentation evaluation metrics (volumetric and surface Dice similarity coefficient) do not always match industry expert evaluation in the case of more demanding clinical applications.

BACKGROUND: The biplanar 2D/3D X-ray technology (BPXR) is a 2D/3D imaging system allowing simultaneous stereo-corresponding posteroanterior (PA) and lateral 2D views of the whole body. The aim of our study was to assess the feasibility of cephalometric analysis based on the BPXR lateral skull view to accurately characterize facial morphology. METHOD: A total of 17 landmarks and 11 angles were placed and/or calculated on lateral BPXR and lateral cephalograms of 13 patients by three investigators. Five methods of angle identification were performed: the direct construction of straight lines on lateral cephalograms (LC-A) and on BPXR (BPXR-A), as well as the calculation of angles based on landmark identification on lateral cephalograms (LA-L) and on BPXR with the PA image (BPXR-LPA) or without (BPXR-L). Intra- and interoperator reliability of landmark identification and angle measurement of each method were calculated. To determine the most reliable method among the BPXR-based methods, their concordance with the reference method, LC-A, was evaluated. RESULTS: Both imaging techniques had excellent intra- and interoperator reliability for landmark identification. On lateral BPXR, BPXR-A presented the best concordance with the reference method and a good intra- and interoperator reliability. CONCLUSION: BPXR provides a lateral view of the skull suitable for cephalometric analysis with good reliability.
RESUMEN
In some dentofacial deformity patients, especially patients undergoing surgical orthodontic treatments, Computed Tomography (CT) scans are useful to assess complex asymmetry or to plan orthognathic surgery. This assessment would be made easier for orthodontists and surgeons with a three-dimensional (3D) cephalometric analysis, which would require the localization of landmarks and the construction of reference planes. The objectives of this study were to assess manual landmarking repeatability and reproducibility (R&R) of a set of 3D landmarks and to evaluate R&R of vertical cephalometric measurements using two Frankfort Horizontal (FH) planes as references for horizontal 3D imaging reorientation. Thirty-three landmarks, divided into "conventional", "foraminal" and "dental", were manually located twice by three experienced operators on 20 randomly-selected CT scans of orthognathic surgery patients. R&R confidence intervals (CI) of each landmark in the -x, -y and -z directions were computed according to the ISO 5725 standard. These landmarks were then used to construct 2 FH planes: a conventional FH plane (orbitale left, porion right and left) and a newly proposed FH plane (midinternal acoustic foramen, orbitale right and left). R&R of vertical cephalometric measurements were computed using these 2 FH planes as horizontal references for CT reorientation. Landmarks showing a 95% CI of repeatability and/or reproducibility > 2 mm were found exclusively in the "conventional" landmarks group. Vertical measurements showed excellent R&R (95% CI < 1 mm) with either FH plane as horizontal reference. However, the 2 FH planes were not found to be parallel (absolute angular difference of 2.41°, SD 1.27°). Overall, "dental" and "foraminal" landmarks were more reliable than the "conventional" landmarks. Despite the poor reliability of the landmarks orbitale and porion, the construction of the conventional FH plane provided a reliable horizontal reference for 3D craniofacial CT scan reorientation.

3D-printing is part of the daily practice of maxillo-facial surgeons, stomatologists and oral surgeons. To date, no French health center is producing in-house medical devices according to the new European standards. Based on all the evidence-based data available, a group of experts from the French Society of Stomatology, Maxillo-Facial Surgery and Oral Surgery (Société Française de Chirurgie Maxillofaciale, Stomatologie et Chirurgie Orale, SFSCMFCO), provide good practice guidelines for in-house 3D-printing in maxillo-facial surgery, stomatology, and oral surgery. Briefly, technical considerations related to printers and CAD software, which were the main challenges in the last ten years, are now nearly trivial questions. The central current issues when planning the implementation of an in-house 3D-printing platform are economic and regulatory. Successful in-house 3D platforms rely on close collaborations between health professionals and engineers, backed by regulatory and logistic specialists. Several large-scale academic projects across France will soon provide definitive answers to governance and economical questions related to the use of in-house 3D printing.

PURPOSE: Meeting with local needs of low- and middle-income countries during maxillofacial humanitarian mission is not easy. This article aimed to report on 5 years of experience in humanitarian maxillofacial surgery missions. In addition, several key points for best practices and meeting the medical needs of local populations are discussed. METHODS: In this retrospective case series, all medical charts of patients managed during humanitarian maxillofacial surgery missions organized within the department of maxillofacial surgery of Le Dantec Hospital (Senegal) were analyzed. Disease characteristics, treatments modality, and outcomes were reviewed. Moreover, missions planning and costs were studied. RESULTS: Between 2015 and 2018, 5 humanitarian missions were organized totalizing 177 patients, one-third of which were treated surgically. Tumors (35%) and sequelae from previous surgeries, cancrum oris or trauma (24%) were the most frequently treated disorders. Most patients were treated with free flap reconstructions (35%). Postoperative complications were observed for only 3 patients (5%). With a median follow-up of 13 months, no sequelae requiring specific treatment were observed. The estimated total cost for each mission was $39,000. CONCLUSION: In order to benefit both the locals and the volunteers, humanitarian maxillofacial missions should be carefully planned and volunteers appropriately prepared. Other keys to the success of such missions are setting up training and support programs, reflecting upon ethical considerations, understanding local cultural customs and ensuring mutual respect with the locals. Frequent self-evaluation and long-term mission sustainability are critical. Finally, mission costs should be evaluated.

Craniofacial fractures management is challenging to teach due to the complex anatomy of the head, even when using three-dimensional CT-scan images. DIVA is a software allowing the straightforward visualization of CT-scans in a user-friendly three-dimensional virtual reality environment. Here, we assess DIVA as an educational tool for craniofacial trauma for undergraduate medical students. Three craniofacial trauma cases (jaw fracture, naso-orbital-ethmoid complex fracture and Le Fort 3 fracture) were submitted to 50 undergraduate medical students, who had to provide diagnoses and treatment plans. Each student then filled an 8-item questionnaire assessing satisfaction, potential benefit, ease of use and tolerance. Additionally, 4 postgraduate students were requested to explore these cases and to place 6 anatomical landmarks on both virtual reality renderings and usual slice-based three-dimensional CT-scan visualizations. High degrees of satisfaction (98%) without specific tolerance issues (86%) were reported. The potential benefit in a better understanding of craniofacial trauma using virtual reality was reported by almost all students (98%). Virtual reality allowed a reliable localization of key anatomical landmarks when compared with standard three-dimensional CT-scan visualization. Virtual reality interfaces such DIVA are beneficial to medical students for a better understanding of craniofacial trauma and allow a reliable rendering of craniofacial anatomy.

BACKGROUND: This study aimed to evaluate the feasibility of a new biplanar low-dose X-ray device for facial skeletal imaging. METHODS: We evaluated 48 biplanar radiographs from 12 patients (posteroanterior/lateral), originally taken for a scoliosis examination with a biplanar low-dose X-ray device. For this study, the images were further evaluated for the perceptibility of 38 facial skeleton landmarks. To determine the reliability and reproducibility of perceptibility, two independent observers determined the landmarks twice, during a time interval of at least two weeks. RESULTS: Both interoperator and intraoperator reliability were excellent for all landmarks [intraclass correlation coefficient (ICC) > 0.92]. CONCLUSIONS: The biplanar low-dose X-ray device demonstrated good feasibility for precisely assessing the anatomical landmarks of the facial skeleton. Given its excellent precision, the biplanar low-dose X-ray device data sets should be forwarded from the treating orthopedic surgeon or neurosurgeon to the orthodontist or dentist for further assessment in their field.

PURPOSE: Conventional orthognathic osteotomies provide appropriate functional outcomes but might be unable to correct midface deficiency, achieve a satisfactory outcome in asymmetrical cases, or allow sufficient chin advancement. We evaluated the outcome of both standard and customized facial high-density porous polyethylene implants used to refine the cosmetic outcome of orthognathic surgery. PATIENTS AND METHODS: We implemented a retrospective study. The sample was composed of all patients who underwent facial alloplastic augmentation between June 2011 and October 2018 in our department. The complication rate was recorded after a mean follow-up period of 41 months postoperatively, and patient satisfaction was assessed through a qualitative evaluation based on an 11-item questionnaire. RESULTS: The sample was composed of 24 implants placed in 14 patients: 13 mandibular angle implants, among which 4 were customized; 8 malar implants; and 3 chin implants. No physical complications such as hematoma, infection, migration, or hypoesthesia were observed. Two implants had to be removed because of early unsatisfactory esthetic outcomes. Of 14 patients, 11 answered our questionnaire. Eighty-two percent strongly agreed that the overall outcome was satisfactory. CONCLUSIONS: The results of this study confirm the low physical complication rate described in the literature, and the esthetic complication rate remains lower than the rates observed in previous reports. A high satisfaction rate was found among patients. The lowest mean satisfaction score was noted for appropriate implant symmetry (3.5), whereas the highest mean satisfaction score (3.8) was achieved when using customized implants. If standard high-density porous polyethylene implants appear to be relevant adjuncts to orthognathic surgery, customized implants seem to achieve higher satisfaction, although their prohibitive cost should be considered.

Temporo-mandibular disorders -TMD- involve a whole set of anatomical, physiological and clinical disorders that exceed by far the sole temporo-mandibular joint. The main symptom of this condition, most frequent in female patients, is pain. Three syndromes are associated with TMD: a muscular syndrome, not only involving masticatory muscles but also muscles of the neck and pain in seemingly unrelated anatomical regions, which can be misleading; an inflammatory articular syndrome; a mechanical syndrome affecting mouth-opening path. The main treatment of this very common and benign disorder is based on physical therapy. However, physicians should be warned that some patients might exhibit similar symptoms in rare cases of malignant tumor.
DYSFONCTION DE L'APPAREIL MANDUCATEUR La notion de dysfonction de l'appareil manducateur doit être considérée selon un ensemble anatomoclinique et physiopathologique qui dépasse largement l'articulation temporomandibulaire. Cette symptomatologie essentiellement féminine et douloureuse s'exprime selon trois syndromes volontiers intriqués : un syndrome musculaire qui, au-delà des muscles de la mastication, peut intéresser la musculature cervicale et provoquer des douleurs dont le siège égare aisément le diagnostic ; un syndrome articulaire inflammatoire ; un syndrome mécanique qui altère le chemin d'ouverture de la mandibule. Le traitement est avant tout fonctionnel, s'appuyant sur la rééducation. Mais cette symptomatologie d'apparence et d'étiologie si banales ne doit pas laisser ignorer qu'elle peut avoir une cause plus sombre à type de tumeur maligne régionale.

INTRODUCTION: Neoadjuvant chemotherapy (neo-CT) for osteosarcomas is the standard of care. Management of maxillo-facial osteosarcomas (MFOS) is challenging. In this rare disease, we collected a large cohort of patients with the aim to report the histological and radiological local response rates to neo-CT. PATIENTS AND METHODS: All consecutive adult patients treated between 2001 and 2016 in two French sarcoma referral centers (Pitié-Salpêtrière Hospital, APHP, RESAP France and Gustave Roussy Institute France), for a histologically proved MFOS were included. Clinical, histological and radiological data were independently reviewed. Tumor response to neo-CT was assessed clinically, radiologically with independent review using RECIST v1.1 criterion and pathologically (percentage of necrosis). Multivariate analysis was done for outcomes, tumor response and disease-free survival (DFS). RESULTS: A total of 35 high grade MFOS were collected. The clinical tumor response was 4% (1/24 receiving neo-CT), the radiological response was 0% (0/18 with available data) and the pathological response was 5% (1/20 with available data). Three patients (12.5%) initially resectable became unresectable due to clinical and radiological progression during neo-CT. Tumor size and R0 (clear margins) surgical resections were significantly associated with DFS. CONCLUSION: MFOS is a rare disease. This large retrospective cohort of MFOS indicates the lack of benefit and potentially deleterious effects of neo-CT. We suggest privileging primary surgery in initially localized resectable MFOS. The benefit of adjuvant chemotherapy should be prospectively studied.

Obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) is a common, multifactorial disease resulting in high morbidity and mortality. Gold standard treatment is nocturnal positive airway pressure. Maxillomandibular advancement is a surgical technique used to treat obstructive sleep apnea. Development of guided surgery has modified patient care in cases of maxillomandibular dysgnathia. Two case reports illustrate the impact of new technologies on surgical treatment of this condition. New technologies such as the recent development of surgical guides help surgical management.
