Distraction of the Craniofacial Skeleton

Abstract

Distraction osteogenesis, a technique initially used and described in the correction of lower limb deficiencies and discrepancies (1–4), has recently been adapted, at first in animal models and later in the human, to the craniofacial skeleton and has gained popularity as the devices have become more sophisticated and the techniques more refined (5–13).
