|---|---|---|---|---|
| Primary | Time of operation in minutes | Time from start of the incision to the last suture. | Intraoperative | |
| Primary | Hemorrhage control and ease of operation using a visual analogue scale | To assess the visibility of the field and ease of operation, a visual analogue scale was used. Each parameter constituted a horizontal 100 mm continuous line in which value of zero indicates minimum level of the assessed parameter and 100 indicates the maximum level. Each surgeon marked on the line then the score is determined by measuring in mms from the left end of the line to that marked point. (higher scores mean a better outcome) | Intraoperative | |
| Primary | Objective assessment of neurosensory function using a probe (to detect nerve injury after the surgeries) | A probe was used to prick the patient's skin relevant to the area of operation to assess the neurosensory function in comparison to the contralateral side.If the patient states a difference in sensation between the side of operation and the normal side, it was assigned as "Y" and if there was no difference in sensation between the two sides, it was assigned as "N". | 1 month | |
| Primary | Radiographic percentage of change in bone defect volume using cone beam computed tomography | The change between preoperative and 3-months postoperative values of both groups were compared | 3 months |
