Advanced 3-D Biomodelling Technology for Complex Mandibular Reconstruction
نویسندگان
چکیده
Reconstructive surgery of the head and neck is a demanding field. The specific anatomical complexity of the region, and its almost inevitable exposure to the public, demand for highly refined and careful reconstructive procedures. In fact, in the last decades, the trend in reconstructive surgery, as for the general medical field, is to put the standard of care in an extremely high level and this adds an extra perfectionist input in treatment goals.

3D printed models in mandibular reconstruction with bony free flaps
The aim of the study was to compare two types of mandible reconstructive operations with scapula and fibula free flaps: procedures with 3-D models from thermoplastic materials and conventional planning surgeries. 8 patients were treated due to an advanced oral cavity squamous cell carcinoma. In four patients with a mandibular defect, a physical 3-D model consisting of the reconstructed and unaf...
متن کاملReconstruction with fibular osteocutaneous free flap in patients with mandibular osteoradionecrosis
BACKGROUND Osteoradionecrosis is a delayed complication from radiation therapy which causes chronic pain, infection and constant deformity after necrosis. Most of the osteoradionecrosis occurs spontaneously or after the primary oncologic surgery, dental extraction or by trauma of prosthesis. The treatment of osteoradionecrosis relies on both conservative measures and surgical measures. The fibu...
متن کاملMandibular reconstruction using plates prebent to fit rapid prototyping 3-dimensional printing models ameliorates contour deformity
BACKGROUND Recently, medical rapid prototyping (MRP) models, fabricated with computer-aided design and computer-aided manufacture (CAD/CAM) techniques, have been applied to reconstructive surgery in the treatment of head and neck cancers. Here, we tested the use of preoperatively manufactured reconstruction plates, which were produced using MRP models. The clinical efficacy and esthetic outcome...
متن کاملReconstruction of Lateral Mandibular Defects with Soft Tissue Loss: The Role of the Submental Flap
Introduction: Mandibular continuity defects after pathologic resections or traumatic events are difficult cases for reconstruction. Defects involving both hard and soft tissue loss are more challenging, because of problems in soft tissue coverage. The role of the submental flap in this regard is presented. Materials and Methods: In a retrospective study from the archived files of Ghaem Hospi...
