In hemifacial microsomia, osteodistraction before skeletal maturation claims to induce both bone- and soft-tissue generation in such a way that conventional bone grafting and soft-tissue grafts are not necessary. Early osteodistraction in facial microsomia would have a positive effect on the 'functional matrix', and allow symmetrical vertical and sagittal expansion of the midface and mandible. The aim of this literature survey was to find evidence for this hypothesis by analysing long-term follow-up reports on distraction histiogenesis in the ascending ramus.
