“…Raith et al 29 described a custom algorithm for planning mandibular reconstructions that approximates the fibula and mandibular resection with curves, and then matches the curves to create the reconstruction. Their algorithm was recently evaluated ex vivo by Modabber et al 30 Nakao et al 31 described a significantly more complex algorithm that accounts for the 3D shape of the mandible rather than a curve approximation and evaluate it ex‐vivo. However, these workflows have not been evaluated clinically.…”

“…Previously published related works tried to consider the whole surfaces of both transplant and recipient bones . While that is a comprehensive approach it is also complicated because the curvatures of the anatomical surfaces in space are difficult to comprehend and it thus seems to be challenging to implement these algorithms in clinical routine and use their (semi‐)automated proposals for mandibular reconstructions.…”

“…The fundamental difference of the present approach from published works with similar intentions is that the three‐dimensional bone surface geometries are simplified to curves that follow certain anatomical features. The advantage of using these curves to define the relevant contour of the target shape is that it reduces the overwhelmingly complex task of mandibular reconstruction to a manageable procedure.…”

“…In this situation, grinding the bones to the desired shape is necessary. Since the mandible may be very fragile and unstable after surgery, a specific plate designed for the patient is needed to fix the bones [25]. In brief, maxillofacial surgery includes three essential operations: open reduction, osteotomy, and plate fixation.…”
