RESUMEN
The aim of this systematic review was (i) to determine the role of muscular traction in the occurrence of skeletal relapse after advancement BSSO and (ii) to investigate the effect of advancement BSSO on the perimandibular muscles. This systematic review reports in accordance with the recommendations proposed by the Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-Analyses (PRISMA) statement. Electronic database searches were performed in the databases MEDLINE, Embase and Cochrane Library. Inclusion criteria were as follows: assessment of relapse after advancement BSSO; assessment of morphological and functional change of the muscles after advancement BSSO; and clinical studies on human subjects. Exclusion criteria were as follows: surgery other than advancement BSSO; studies in which muscle activity/traction was not investigated; and case reports with a sample of five cases or fewer, review articles, meta-analyses, letters, congress abstracts or commentaries. Of the initial 1006 unique articles, 11 studies were finally included. In four studies, an intervention involving the musculature was performed with subsequent assessment of skeletal relapse. The changes in the morphological and functional properties of the muscles after BSSO were studied in seven studies. The findings of this review demonstrate that the perimandibular musculature plays a role in skeletal relapse after advancement BSSO and may serve as a target for preventive strategies to reduce this complication. However, further research is necessary to (i) develop a better understanding of the role of each muscle group, (ii) to develop new therapeutic strategies and (iii) to define criteria that allow identification of patients at risk.

The aim of this study was to systematically review the accuracy of intraoperative computer navigation, three-dimensional surgical guides and customized osteosynthesis plates for the transfer of the virtual surgical plan to the patient in orthognathic surgery. A systematic review of the currently available publications was performed in databases MEDLINE, Embase, and Cochrane Library, using a PICOS search strategy, and reported according to PRISMA. The initial search yielded 3050 articles. In total, 16 studies were included for final quantitative analyses. The results of individual studies demonstrated a comparable accuracy in the transfer of planned surgical displacement of the jaws. A large variability was found with regard to the method of accuracy assessment and reported outcomes. The findings of this review show that these modern techniques have the potential to replace interocclusal splints in routine clinical practice in the future. We recommend that authors presenting new data on the accuracy of a technique should choose the method of accuracy assessment meticulously, acquiring postoperative imaging as soon as possible after surgery. They should report as much as possible, summarizing values or, ideally, even the raw data of the accuracy assessment in order to allow comparison with other techniques in a meta-analysis.
