Correction to: Oral and Maxillofacial Surgery (2023)
The original article contains a numerical error in Table 2. Corrected Table 2 provided:
Parameter | Advancement Group Average Change (43 patients) | Setback Group Average Change (56 patients) | P value |
|---|---|---|---|
CCL | −0,565 | −0,091 | 0,298289 |
CCR | 0,581 | 0,225 | 0,367259 |
ABL | −0,598 | −4,241 | 0,011326 |
ABR | −5,765 | −3,754 | 0,169629 |
EDL | −0,026 | −0,105 | 0,74881 |
EDR | −0,120 | 0,252 | 0,295643 |
FDL | 0,044 | 0,023 | 0,963936 |
FDR | −0,333 | 0,720 | 0,005795 |
Also, because of the numerical error, there has been a misinterpretation of the results. Hence, in the Abstract and Results section, the results are as following:
In Abstract:
Results: CT condylar position measurements indicated significant postoperative changes in AB angle bilaterally (p = <0,001). In mandibular advancement and setback comparison, values were significantly lower in ABL angle values in setback group (p = 0,011326), and significantly lower in FDR in advancement group (p=0,005795). There were no statistically significant changes found in BSSO and bimaxillary group comparison.
In Results:
There was also a difference in FDR value changes – in advancement group, the values were significantly lower (p = 0,005795) (Table 2).
In Discussion:
In this study, the results showed significant changes in pre- and postoperative values in AB angle, which represents condylar rotation in the transversal axis. This change was even more apparent in mandibular setback group, where the values showed a significant decrease, indicating medial condylar rotation. Lower FDR values in advancement group indicate a more posterior postoperative condylar position in comparison to the setback group.
