Area of Science:

  • Craniofacial Surgery
  • Medical Imaging
  • Computer-Aided Surgery

Background:

  • Complex craniofacial operations, including orbital reconstruction, present significant surgical challenges.
  • Accurate assessment of bony anatomy and critical neurovascular structures is crucial for successful orbital reconstruction.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To review the application of virtual surgical planning (VSP) in various orbital pathologies.
  • To highlight the benefits of VSP in improving surgical outcomes for orbital reconstruction.

Main Methods:

  • Review of VSP applications in orbital decompression, posttraumatic midface reconstruction, and orbital defect reconstruction.
  • Utilizing computer-assisted technology for virtual planning of osteotomies, fracture reductions, and implant placement.

Main Results:

  • VSP allows for efficient and predictable planning of complex orbital reconstructions.
  • Successful application of VSP in diverse cases including two-wall and large orbital floor defects.

Conclusions:

  • Virtual surgical planning is a valuable tool for managing orbital pathology and posttraumatic orbital deformities.
  • Surgeons can significantly benefit from VSP for enhancing the precision and outcomes of orbital surgeries.
