This paper provides a review of articles relating to deformity, orthognathic surgery, and distraction osteogenesis published in the British Journal of Oral and Maxillofacial Surgery during 2008 and 2009. A total of 42 papers (26 full length articles, 5 technical notes, and 11 short communications or letters to the editor) were published. It was pleasing that 62% were full length articles; this is encouraging as such papers have a high educational value and are likely to be cited in future publications.
