Three-Dimensional Reconstruction of Orbital Fractures

Personalized medicine for orbital reconstruction is developing rapidly. Due to the delicate nature of the orbit, small discrepancies following fracture reconstruction may cause impairment in visual perception. Here, we describe three methods for virtual 3D reconstruction of orbital defects and their indications and potential pitfalls for correct reconstruction.

3D Planning and Printing of Patient Specific Implants for Reconstruction of Bony Defects

This protocol describes the use of 3D planning and printing for reconstruction of bony defects. We use segmentation tools to create 3D models followed by 3D design software to create patient specific implants for reconstruction purposes concomitant to ablative surgery or as a second...

Fabrication of Custom Agarose Wells for Cell Seeding and Tissue Ring Self-assembly Using 3D-Printed Molds

This protocol describes a platform for fabricating self-assembled tissue rings in variable sizes using a customized 3D-printed plastic mold. PDMS negatives are cured in the 3D-printed mold; then agarose is cast in the cured PDMS negatives. Cells are seeded into the resulting agarose wells where they aggregate into tissue...

Treatment of Facial Deformities using 3D Planning and Printing of Patient-Specific Implants

As technology develops and becomes more user-friendly, planning of operations and patient-specific surgical guides and fixation plates should be performed by the surgeon. We present a protocol for 3D planning of orthognathic skeletal movements and 3D planning and printing of patient-specific fixation plates and surgical...
