Sažetak

A patient with mandibular hypoplasia associated with Treacher Collins syndrome was treated by bilateral distraction osteogenesis. Intraoral distractor devices provide elongation of the mandible by 17 mm without the need for bone grafts and intermaxillary fixation. Rapid elongation of the bone ensures simultaneous expansion of soft tissues. This new technique is indicted for correction of congenital and acquired jaw deformities.
