Résumé
Maxillomandibular advancement (MMA) for the treatment of obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) has remained a reliable and highly effective surgical intervention since its introduction in 1989. Modifications have been made to maximize skeletal movement and upper airway stability without compromising facial balance. Contemporary indications of recommending MMA prior to other soft tissue surgery are described. MMA poses unique challenges to surgeons. There are patient-related factors, including OSA, a chronic inflammatory condition with associated cardiovascular and metabolic comorbidity. Perioperative management is more complex than routine orthognathic patients. Key details are shared from a 3-decade experience at Stanford.
