Abstract

In this paper we describe a system for corrective and reconstructive CMF surgery that allows planning of bone segment relocations in 3D and transfer of the goal positions into an intra-operative navigation module, which provides guidance to realize the planned movement. In addition, the pre-operative planning module offers functions of mirroring and allows insertion of distraction devices. We present three clinical cases of CMF surgical procedures planned a posteriori with our application: bimaxillary realignment, involving subcondylar osteotomy of the mandible and LeFort I osteotomy, secondary orbital reconstruction and mandibular reconstruction.
