Our Patients

Background

• In the past and even still today, patients are being reconstructed without preoperative virtual surgical planning and simulation.

• Without surgical planning patients can be left with problems in oral functions such as deglutition, speech, mandibular movements, mastication and control

of saliva.

• Patients can be left with major negative changes in their quality of life which can lead to low self-confidence and negative self perception.

Exploratory Benchtop Study Evaluating the Use of Surgical Design and Simulation in

Fibula Free Flap Mandibular Reconstruction

Purpose:

To examine whether there is a difference, in the context of surgical simulation, between free hand surgery completed without virtual surgical planning software and preoperatively planned surgery completed with the use of

virtual surgical planning software.

Free hand (no planning)

SESSION A

Preoperative digital planning

SESSION B VS

OUTCOME MEASURES

1. Digital registration computer software 2. Hard tissue measures 3. Duration of the task

Methods – repeated measures

Free hand (no planning)

SESSION A

• Mandible to reconstruct • Fibula

Methods

Preoperative digital planning

SESSION B • Mandible to reconstruct

• Fibula • Reference mandible

• Reference of the planned reconstruction model • Mandible fixator • Fibula cutting guide

+

On screen review of the digital planning

Methods

Surgical planning was completed in

collaboration with a prosthodontist and a head and neck surgeon

-Optimal implant location -Optimal placement of the fibula

-Optimal height of the fibula in relation to the occlusal plane
