Study was Conducted on Patients were need BSSO Using PSI for reposition and fixation
A prospective study was conducted, and it included 8 patients. All patients underwent mandibular sagittal split osteotomy (BSSO) using PSI for repositioning and fixation. All patients were followed up clinically for immediate,1,3,6 weeks, and 3 months postoperatively after the surgical operation to assess the occlusion, presence of numbness, bleeding, and possible temporomandibular joint (TMJ) changes. All patients underwent immediate and 3 months Ortho pantomogram, postoperative CT were superimposed to the planned preoperative CT scan to evaluate the accuracy of PSI in fixation and merging of Digital dental model to the postoperative CT scan.

Accuracy of PSI and bony segment movements
Measurements using CT software after superimposition using (Mimics and 3-Matic) through fixation landmark points on both virtually planned repositioned mandible and the actual postoperative mandible, all in identical locations. Then linear measurements were performed between defined anatomical landmarks on both models using Measure distance tool, as well as between each landmark and the constructed reference planes
Time frame: Baseline (preoperative), immediate postoperative, and 3-month postoperative follow-up.
