Electromagnetic navigated condylar positioning after high oblique sagittal split osteotomy of the mandible: a guided method to attain pristine temporomandibular joint conditions

This pilot study introduces a guided method for proximal segment positioning after HSSO by applying the intraoperative EM system. The data demonstrate the high accuracy of EM navigation, although manual replacement of the condyles could not be surpassed. However, EM navigation can avoid clinically hidden, severe malpositioning of the condyles.
