title: [The rationale for the choice of the method of surgical intervention in patients with mandibular prognathism].
abstract: Topographic and anatomic structures of the facial bones and functional disorders related to this structures were examined in patients with prognathism. The obtained data were used to define indications for and rational methods of surgical treatment of the condition. Methods of surgical intervention with transverse, longitudinal, and planar osteotomy of the mandibular branches are suggested with consideration for the form and severity of the disease. Reduced bioelectrical activity of the masticatory muscles proper and the presence of obstructive ventilatory defect due to impaired patency of the upper respiratory route were detected.
