Abstract
The analysis of scientific literature devoted to preoperative mistakes of surgical treatment of patients with upper retro- micrognathia was carried out. Long-term experience of surgical treatment has shown that the main mistakes of the preoperative period are neglect of motivation and assessment of mental health of patients, insufficient development of a complex training scheme with interdisciplinary participation and methods of forecasting aesthetic and functional results that can lead to various complications in the subsequent stages of treatment of patients with upper micrognatia. A special role in making mistakes is given to the inconsistency of opinions of orthognatic surgeons to the clinical and radiological essence, to the use of various classifications and terms to denote this form of facial skeleton disharmony, which often leads to an erroneous choice of treatment method. The necessity of multidisciplinary approach in surgical treatment of patients with upper retro-micrognathia has been emphasized.
