Sažetak
The role of 3D computing in reconstructive surgery is still not clearly established, yet the advancements of virtual surgical planning (VSP) and its implementation for various indications is slowly elucidating its purpose. VSP consist of multiple techniques which are being used to complement surgery in its planning stage as well as during it. Such techniques can be divided into computer assisted surgery (CAS), computer assisted design (CAD) and computer assisted manufacturing (CAM). Depending on the case there is a vast array of reconstruction methods that can be employed. Its usage depends on specifics of the case and the result of the VSP. The team UHD used titanium mesh and reconstruction plates, templates, intraoperative navigation, osteotomy guides as wells as flap guides for the different indications necessitating reconstructive surgery. Those indications are grouped into five categories: reconstruction of the mandible, reconstruction of the maxilla, correction of jaw deformities, reconstruction of the orbit and miscellaneous indications. The experienced benefits were, increased accuracy, decreased intraoperative time and overall increased satisfaction with the results due to the usage of 3D computing.
