Virtual Surgical Planning for Mandibular Distraction in Infants with Robin Sequence

Abstract: Summary:Mandibular distraction osteogenesis (MDO) successfully relieves obstructive sleep apnea in many infants with Robin sequence. Preoperative virtual surgical planning and fabrication of three-dimensionally printed cutting guides may lead to further improvements in the MDO technique and decrease the risk for damage to adjacent structures such as developing teeth and the inferior alveolar nerve. This report presents an algorithm for virtual surgical planning and three-dimensionally printing of cutting guide… Show more

“…The majority of patients with molar injury require dental rehabilitation including specialized orthodontic care, composite restoration or the use of a crown in more severe cases 52. From a preventative perspective, virtual surgical planning (VSP) has been assessed in patients with RS undergoing MDO 65. Preoperative cutting guides with pre-determined location for screws based on the distance from the buccal cortex to the developing tooth bud can likely reduce the risk of tooth bud injury as compared to traditional methods 65,66.…”

“…Precise cutting guides are then created to accurately transfer the design onto the neonatal mandible at the time of surgery. VSP can identify the location and depth of teeth and tooth buds to determine the depth of screws and ideal screw placement to reduce the risk of tooth bud injury as compared to traditional methods [1 ▪▪ ,11,18 ▪▪ ] (see Fig. 1).…”

“…23 For the other procedures studied, virtual surgical planning adds upfront costs but may confer overall cost savings in terms of reduced operating room time compared to cases planned using traditional methods. 13,16,19,47,[50][51][52][53][54] Each procedure in this study requires different considerations during the planning process. For implant cranioplasty, the defect is assessed (or craniotomy planned, if needed) and an implant is designed to fill the area.…”
