Computer Modeling With Reconstruction of Maxillofacial Skeleton

December 16, 2010 updated by: University of California, Davis

Is Computer Modeling and Intra-Operative Navigation Helpful With Reconstruction of the Maxillofacial Skeleton?

Investigator initial study to evaluate the use of preoperative computer modeling and the intraoperative navigation to guide reconstruction of the maxillofacial skeleton.

Study Overview

Status

Completed

Detailed Description

The concept of open reduction and internal fixation of facial fractures is well accepted. However, there are situations in which an accurate reduction and restoration of facial symmetry is challenging. In these more difficult cases, the PI uses computer aided design/modeling software as well as intra-operative computer aided surgical navigation systems to assist with repair of these complex injuries. A retrospective review of these cases has not previously been performed.
