Aim: the purpose of this work is to present an innovative protocol for virtual planning and surgical navigation in post-oncological mandibular reconstruction through fibula free flap. In order analyze its applicability, evaluation accuracy has been performed. Methods: 21 patients surgically treated neoplasm have included analysis. The Brainlab Vector Vision 3.0® software used preoperative intra-operative navigation. A post-operative performed matching position landmarks between pre-operative...
Objective: To evaluate patency of circummaxillary sutures in children with Apert, Crouzon, and Pfeiffer Syndromes to compare it a nonsyndromic matched control group. Design: Case–control study. Setting: Tertiary care public hospital. Materials Methods: Thirty-eight computed tomography (CT) scans patients affected by syndromic craniofacial synostosis (13 Apert syndrome, 20 Crouzon 5 syndrome), average age ± 2.8 years, range 1.9 12 were compared age- sex-matched CTs 38 children. Computed the...
Background: The goal of this study was to evaluate with a three-dimensional method the long-term quality alveolar ossification in unilateral cleft lip and palate patients who underwent early secondary gingivoalveoloplasty according Milan surgical protocol. Methods: sample consisted 63 computed tomographic scans permanent dentition. average age at time assessment 15.7 years. Alveolar thickness, nasoalveolar height, nasal floor ossification, hard morphology were evaluated using dental, axial,...
Retrospective study.Following SARS-CoV-2 pandemic break-out a lockdown period for the population and reorganization of Health System were needed. Hub-function Centers time-dependent diseases identified Niguarda Hospital (Milan) was selected as main Regional Trauma Center. The purpose our study is to report experience Maxillofacial Team during this period, pointing out epidemiological changes in presentation trauma comparison previous 3 years.Two hundred sixteen patients admitted Emergency...
The application of surgical navigation in oral and maxillo-facial surgery has been increasing over time. In fact, computer-assisted provides real-time, precise, accurate position guidance during surgery. purpose our work is to introduce the evolution recent decades, describe some technical aspects this technology, explore new possibilities surgery, validate accuracy We included four patients sample who underwent virtual planning on cone beam CT data set using non-invasive fiducial markers....
Abstract The care and the management of healing difficult wounds at level skull‐facial face many problems related to patient compliance need perform multiple dressings, with long periods and, occasionally, a very hospitalisation period. introduction evolution negative pressure wound therapy (NPWT) in treatment has resulted better healing, drastic reduction terms time biological costs cost health system. main aim this study is describe discuss, using out our experience, usefulness NPWT...
Craniometaphyseal dysplasia is a rare hereditary bone disease presenting metaphyseal widening of the tubular bones, sclerosis craniofacial bones and bony overgrowth facial skull bones. occurs in an autosomal dominant (AD) recessive (AR) form.We present 32-year-old patient arrived at our unit May 2009. His main discomfort was major limitation mouth opening, context deformity. Relying on patient's medical history performed diagnostic tests, diagnosis craniometaphyseal made.After careful...
Acute posttraumatic enophthalmos is a well-known symptom occurring in orbital blowout fractures. Its late onset the absence of radiologic evidence displaced fractures rare and traditionally attributed to ischemic liponecrosis or fibrotic scarring endo-orbital soft tissues. In this article, we describe case facial trauma, diagnosed treated at Maxillo-Facial Surgical Department Hospital Ca' Granda Niguarda Milan, which delayed monolateral associated with CT remodeling walls atelectasis...
(1) Introduction and Aim: Surgical navigation has evolved as a vital tool in maxillofacial surgery, offering precise patient-specific data. This study explores the clinical applications accuracy of intraoperative tracking surgery. (2) Materials Methods: The research includes 42 patients with various pathologies who underwent surgeries assisted by surgical system using tracked instruments. Four representative cases are exhibited study: first case involving coronoid hyperplasia mouth opening...
Identifying groups of patients with homogeneous characteristics and comparable outcomes improves clinical activity, patients’ management, scientific research. This study aims to define mild, moderate, severe facial trauma by validating two cut-off values the Comprehensive Facial Injury (CFI) score describing their foreseeable needs create a useful guide in patient starting from first evaluation. The individual CFI score, overall surgical time, length hospitalization are calculated for sample...
Background: It is anticipated that in due course the burden of emergency care to COVID-19 infected patients will reduce sufficiently permit elective surgical procedures recommence. Prioritizing cleft/craniofacial surgery already overloaded medical system then become an issue. The European Cleft Palate Craniofacial Association, together with and Initiative for Equality Care, performed a brief survey capture current snapshot during rapidly evolving pandemic. Methods: A questionnaire was sent...
Ameloblastoma is a rare, benign, odontogenic tumor of epithelial origin, characterized by locally aggressive, expansive growth. Treatment controversial due to the risk relapse. The aim this multicenter retrospective study was evaluate effectiveness complete resection in cases complex ameloblastoma, which considered at higher recurrence. Patients who met least one these criteria were included: recurrence, soft-tissue involvement, erosion internal/external cortical walls with involvement...
