Area of Science:

  • Surgical Innovation
  • Medical Simulation
  • Plastic Surgery

Background:

  • The concept of simulation surgery was introduced by Fujino in 1989 and further developed in 1991.
  • Simulation surgery aims to improve surgical planning and execution.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To discuss the concept of simulation surgery.
  • To highlight its application in plastic and reconstructive surgery.

Main Methods:

  • Simulation surgery is categorized into empirical and computer-based approaches.
  • Both approaches are further divided into morphological, functional, and psychological aspects.

Main Results:

  • Empirical simulation surgery involves pre-operative mental planning.
  • Computer simulation surgery utilizes 3D visualization on monitors or physical models.

Conclusions:

  • Simulation surgery offers a comprehensive framework for pre-operative preparation.
  • This methodology holds significant potential for advancing plastic and reconstructive surgical procedures.
