Abstract
Isolation of the zygomaticomaxillary suture from the remainder of the growing skull by surgically sectioning the zygomatic arch and interfering with the regional muscle and fascial attachments produced growth reductions ranging from 30.9% to 87.5%. This indicated that the suture is an area of compensation rather than of primary growth initiation.Keywords
