Computer generated mandibular model: Surgical role

A life‐size nylon model of a traumatized mandible was produced from CT scan data by the process of laser sintering. The model was used for pre‐operative planning and for production of surgical aids in order to facilitate the restoration of a large bony defect. Vascularized iliac crest bone was harve...

Beschreibung
Zusammenfassung:	A life‐size nylon model of a traumatized mandible was produced from CT scan data by the process of laser sintering. The model was used for pre‐operative planning and for production of surgical aids in order to facilitate the restoration of a large bony defect. Vascularized iliac crest bone was harvested, titanium implants placed and the bone then grafted to the mandible.
