RESTIT : Evaluation of Resorbable Osteosynthesis Devices Versus Titanium in Maxillofacial Surgery
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.

Outcome Measures
Primary Outcome Measures
- 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
- Evaluation of device ergonomy : []
- The operative time of each surgery will be monitored, to compare operative duration of operations ; the only variable will be the osteosynthesis method. []
- Clinical tolerance of the devices []
- pain (Visual Analogic Scale), []
- local inflammation, []
- scar disunion, []
- infection, []
- subcutaneous or submucous palpation of the plates. []
