“…The condition may progress and lead to the formation of a pseudojoint between the coronoid process and the zygoma, in which case the condition is known as Jacob's disease [2]. Jacob's disease was first described in 1899 and is characterized by facial asymmetry [2,4]. Pain is not a typical complaint [4].…”

“…When osteochondromas occur in the maxillofacial region, they usually affect the condyle. Involvement of the coronoid process is exceedingly rare, and, to our knowledge, there are only 62 histologically proven cases in the English medical literature [4]. A few other cases have been reported in the base of the skull, zygomatic arch, and maxillary sinus [3].…”

“…The most common location is the metaphyseal region of long bones, which develop through endochondral ossification [3]. The facial bones are rarely affected, because they develop through intramembranous ossification [2][3][4]. When osteochondromas occur in the maxillofacial region, they usually affect the condyle.…”

BackgroundReduction malarplasty is one of the most common surgical procedures performed in the Asian population for aesthetic purposes. Although multiple methods have been developed for reduction malarplasty, including a variety of infracture techniques, most of the current procedures have limitations. In the current study we created a new infracture method to circumvent these shortcomings.Material/MethodsBetween January 2004 and October 2013, we applied this novel infracture technique in 700 patients. The highest area of the zygomatic body was marked pre-operatively and ground intra-operatively through an intraoral incision. An L-shaped incomplete osteotomy of the zygomatic body was performed with a reciprocating saw, and then a complete perpendicular osteotomy (1 cm anterior to the articular tubercle of the zygomatic arch) was made through a pre-auricular incision. Light pressure on the posterior part of the arch produced a greenstick fracture of the anterior osteotomy site, resulting in posterior-inward repositioning of the malar complex. Internal fixation was not required.ResultsSatisfactory aesthetic results and good post-operative stability were achieved. Three months post-operatively, the bone around the zygomatic arc osteotomy line was remodeled. The bone posterior to the articular tubercle of the zygomatic arch was partially absorbed, leading to a depression of the root of the arc and a natural transition on both sides of the osteotomy line, making the midface more slender. Instead, the anterior bone presented with new bones, making the malar complex more stable.ConclusionsThis new method has multiple advantages, including simple manipulation, no need for internal fixation, short operative and recovery times, and few complications. X-ray images showing the bony changes demonstrated that the infracture technique is an effective and ideal method for reduction malarplasty.
