Abstract:Utilization of our novel surgical stent allowed reconstruction of complex maxillectomy defects and facilitated the design of a reconstructive flap without the need of pre-bent plates, cutting guides, or associated expenses.
Midface reconstruction is a unique and challenging surgery demonstrated by the numerous classification systems and techniques available to reconstruct. Recent developments have further augmented these challenging reconstructions.
