Abstract
Craniofacial distraction has evolved as a major paradigm shift in the surgical reconstruction of the craniofacial skeleton: mandible, maxilla, mid-face, zygomas, and cranial vault. The techniques are simpler and less invasive and obviate the need for bone grafts, extensive plating systems, and blood transfusion. They are also associated with reduced operating time, shorter hospital stays, less morbidity, and significantly improved relapse rates.
