Abstract

The success of a segmental osteotomy depends on the surgical approach, which must be fully thought out from the initial incision to the suture to be successful. This has to do with segmental perfusion and the limited displacement ability of the segment in the mandibular arch. Only well-considered surgical steps guarantee success.
