shortening of the mandibular body


Explanation:
As per this article:

In French: En effet, le traitement
habituellement réalisé consiste en une ostéotomie sagittale des
branches montantes, qui, certes, permet une correction antéropostérieure
de la dysmorphose, mais qui pérennise le déséquilibre
intrinsèque de la mandibule et induit une relative dolichocorpie

The same article translated in English: In effect, the treatment usually
administered consists in bimaxillary sagittal split osteotomy which
can, it is true, correct the anteroposterior component of the malformation
but also perpetuates the intrinsic mandibular imbalance
and induces a relative shortening of the mandibular body

Taken from this article: Les insuffisances verticales postérieures
de la mandibule : présentation d’une nouvelle
technique de correction et étude rétrospective
de 15 cas
