RESUMO
Atlantoaxial rotatory subluxation (AARS), which is characterised by an abnormal alignment of the atlantoaxial joint, is rarely reported after oral and maxillofacial surgery. A four-year-old girl developed AARS after neck surgery. The child initially had treatment for one month in a timely manner. Follow ups revealed reduced symptoms of neck pain and the previous tilt disappeared after serial treatment. This case aimed to increase awareness of AARS and provide a reference for oral and maxillofacialsurgeons.

Background: Although the application of vascularized free bone muscle flap to reconstruct the mandible has become a standardized approach for mandible reconstruction, the results of its reconstruction are not always satisfactory. The purpose of this study was to identify the types of mandibular and condylar defects by analyzing the unsatisfactory cases of mandibular reconstruction in clinical practice, and to provide some clinical experience of reconstruction. Methods: Our study retrospectively analyzed 364 patients who underwent mandibular resection and vascularized free bone flap reconstruction of the mandible and temporomandibular joint (TMJ). We innovatively proposed a "VSCU" classification system (V: vertical position, S: sagittal position, C: coronal position, U: condylar resection is not required) by analyzing computed tomography (CT) scans of mandibular branches and TMJs. Results: In all, 221 cases of free iliac muscle flap and 143 cases of fibula muscle flap were included in this study, of which 23 cases had unsatisfactory results after TMJ reconstruction. We classified 23 patients with unsatisfactory mandibular reconstruction according to the "VSCU" classification system. The most common type was U + V + SfC (n=8), followed by V - SfC + U + (n=4), V - s + C + U + (n=3), V - sbcou - (n=3), V - SBC + U + (n=2), V - s + C + U - (n=1). The most common classification was insufficient mandibular rami length, followed by condylar sagittal anteriorization. There was no significant change in the position of condyle on the healthy side during mandibular reconstruction involving condyle. P1 on the affected side was 52.28±4.17 mm before operation and 58.94±5.65 mm after operation, P<0.01; P2 was 12.83±3.49 mm before operation and 24.90±7.15 mm after operation. S2 was 4.54±2.84 mm before operation and 19.10±8.54 mm after operation. A2 was 11.46±3.35 mm before operation and 24.15±8.29 mm after operation. The P values were all less than 0.01, and the differences were statistically significant. Conclusions: We propose to use the "VSCU" classification system for accurate 3-dimensional (3D) analysis and positioning, and then obtain accurate models through computer-aided design and manufacturing (CAD/CAM), which can reduce the occurrence of poor reconstruction effect and unreasonable joint position, and is worthy of clinical promotion.
