Virtual Surgical Planning Using Stereolithographic Models for Segmental Mandibular Resection with Limited Extraoral Skin Incision versus Traditional Surgical Protocols
Abstract:Purpose: To evaluate, both clinically and radiographically the usage of stereolithographic model with limited extraoral skin incision versus the traditional method using dry mandibles in preoperative adaptation of locking reconstruction plate for lateral mandibular continuity defects in delayed type mandibular reconstruction. Materials and methods: Sixteen patients were randomly classified into two equal groups; in which group I was the control (traditional method) and group II was the study group (new method)… Show more
