Endoscopically assisted intraoral mandibular distraction osteogenesis

Correct placement of intraoral devices for mandibular distraction osteogenesis is important to achieve the ideal vector of distraction. As visual inspection and intraoperative management in the inferior mandibular border or at the posterior ascending ramus is impaired, an endoscopically assisted method is presented. Since the introduction of this new technique operation time and ease have been significantly improved.
