ALONSO DEL HOYO, J.. Subcondylar osteotomy in the treatment of mandibular deformites. Rev Esp Cirug Oral y Maxilofac [online]. 2004, vol.26, n.1, pp.09-13. ISSN 2173-9161.
The surgical correction of prognathism by interventions in the ascending branches of the mandible was the option that substituted the «ostectomy» techniques that reduced the mandibular volume or, more exactly, the length of the body bilaterally. Subcondylar oblique osteomies are performed above Spix's spine, preserving the vascular-nervous package, that comes from the signoid notch, reaching the posterior border of the jaw. Since the year 1974, we have used the subcondyar oblique technique (SOO) intraorally in 367 cases for the correction of prognathism.
