Study Details

Study Description

Brief Summary

Primary objective : To evaluate the quality of fractures setting and osteotomy of the facial massif osteosynthesised with resorbable device PLLA/PGA compared with usual Titanium plates.

Secondary objective :
  • To evaluate the resorbable device ergonomy versus Titanium.

  • To evaluate the clinical tolerance of resorbable device versus Titanium.

Hypothesis :

Osteosynthesis with resorbable device demonstrates a non inferiority success probability regarding the success observed in osteosynthesis with Titanium, with a less important probability of re-operation.

Study duration : 14 months for each patient.

Study treatment :
  • Group I : Resorbable device PLLA/PGA.

  • Group II : Titanium device.

Study visits :
  • Screening visit - Baseline with randomization and surgery - Day1 - Day 21 - Day 45(Traumatology)/Day 90 (orthognatic) - Month 6,12 and 14.

Randomization : Stratification by centres, mono or bimaxillar surgery and traumatologic or orthognatic criteria.

Condition or Disease Intervention/Treatment Phase

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcome Measures

  1. The quality of fractures setting and osteotomy of the facial massif osteosynthesised with resorbable device PLLA/PGA will be evaluated by the notion of unperfect resuts. []

Secondary Outcome Measures

  1. Evaluation of device ergonomy : []

  2. The operative time of each surgery will be monitored, to compare operative duration of operations ; the only variable will be the osteosynthesis method. []

  3. Clinical tolerance of the devices []

  4. pain (Visual Analogic Scale), []

  5. local inflammation, []

  6. scar disunion, []

  7. infection, []

  8. subcutaneous or submucous palpation of the plates. []
