“…These data would agree with our own on the basis that clearer anatomical knowledge of the area and familiarity with the technique will make it much easier to obtain a donor graft (14). 3D composite cast models provide highly precise information about the anatomical structure to be treated and the graft site, whether this be as donor or receiver (15). The precision of biomodels has been described by such authors who showed that when fabricating splints and titanium prothesis on the basis of data taken either from patients or from biomodels, both sources achieved identical results and no significant differences were observed (16).…”

Objectives: To obtain bone "bioreplicas" for determining precisely the amount of biomaterial required for bone regeneration procedure. Study design: A case-control comparison with a total sample size of 20 cases, 10 control and 10 test samples. "Bioreplicas" were generated from helical CAT scans with 0.5 mm slices, without 3D reconstruction or image filters. Bone defects in premolar and molar areas were treated with titanium mesh and xenograft (MP3) combined with resorbable carriers. Time taken to carry out procedures with and without the use of "bioreplicas" (in minutes), discrepancies between the grafts performed with and without "bioreplicas" and bone defects (mm), and postoperative complications were registered. Results: No significant differences were recorded for measurements of width and length of bone defect between patient bone and the biological models. Conclusions: The use of "bioreplicas" obtained by rapid prototyping is effective in treatment planning.

“…Combined with the anatomical knowledge, the optimal shape of the graft was easily modified to sustain CSF pulsation pressure, and spared the important structure in the skull base (superior orbital fissure in our case). In this report, the planned graft was transferred to stereolithographic resin models, which can provide better understanding of the anatomy, for presurgical simulation, increasing operative accuracy in the localization of lesions, and more accurate fabrication of implants [19,22,23,24]. The final metal graft was therefore perfected according to the template.…”

Background: Sphenoid dysplasia is a distinctive but uncommon manifestation of neurofibromatosis type 1. The absence of the sphenoid greater wing allows the temporal lobe to prolapse into the orbit resulting in temporal base encephalocele and pulsating exophthalmos. Surgical procedures are aimed at preserving vision and improving ocular movement and cosmesis. This defect can be closed using bone grafts or titanium mesh. However, the results of this procedure are often unsustainable due to bone graft resorption and graft displacement. Methods: In this report, we describe a novel surgical technique, combining computer-aided design, stereolithography and neuronavigation to repair a temporal base skull defect in a 16-year-old female patient with neurofibromatosis type 1. A three-dimensional model of the skull base defect and a template for graft were first constructed according to the image data, then transferred to a real-size stereolithographic biomodel using a rapid prototyping technique. Results: The final graft of titanium mesh, which was intraoperatively fabricated based on the biomodel, was precisely orientated and securely fixed to the surrounding bone under frameless navigation. Long-term follow-up result proved this repair to be effective and durable. Conclusion: The approach combining computer-aided design, stereolithography and surgical navigation could help managing the complex lesions in the skull base and craniofacial area requiring rigid reconstruction.
