We report the correction of facial deformity and posterior open bite with Le Fort I and modified subcondylar osteotomies in a patient affected by acromegaly. Computer-aided design and manufacturing generated saw and drill guides were used to perform osteotomies and segment removal. The placement of the patient-specific implants (PSIs) was guided by predesigned drill holes ensuring the required and planned movement of the jaws and position of the PSIs. After segment removal, the PSIs fitted the predesigned drill holes with high precision and were secured without problems. The planned amount of mandibular and maxillary movement was achieved. The occlusion and osteotomies remained stable for the follow-up of 22 months. The use of PSIs combined with guided surgery can be beneficial for selected cases with asymmetry or posterior open bite enabling new approaches and yielding good functional and aesthetic outcome. The modification of conventional ramus osteotomy combined with utilization of ramus segment removal and the use of PSI for reposition is an interesting and promising technique for rare conditions with ramus height asymmetry.
