Evaluation of Patient-specific Surgical Stents and Plates for Guided Reduction And Fixation of Mandibular Angle Fractures

January 24, 2026 updated by: Alexandria University
This study will evaluate the patient specific surgical stent and plate for guided reduction and fixation of mandibular angle fractures.

Study Overview

Detailed Description

seven patients with recent mandibular angle fractures indicated for open reduction and internal fixation were treated by patient specific surgical stent and plate for guided reduction and fixation of mandibular angle fractures. Follow-up extended to 12 weeks. Clinical parameters included pain, operative time, postoperative occlusion, wound healing and mouth opening. Radiographic evaluation was conducted using computed tomography scans acquired preoperatively and postoperatively ,superimposition of the pre and postoperative models will be done to create error map and measure the accuracy

Primary Outcome Measures

Outcome Measure
Measure Description
Time Frame
Evaluation of accuracy of surgical reduction and fixation
Time Frame: Day 1
Evaluation of accuracy of surgical guide will be done using slicer and blender, and mimics software with the aid of the preoperative and postoperative CT. Preoperative planning will be merged with the new CT data to identify the accuracy of reduction.
