Forehead Flap Templates for Nasal Reconstruction Digitally Developed From 2D and 3D Images
JOURNAL OF CRANIOFACIAL SURGERY(2022)
摘要
The forehead flap is the gold standard procedure for nasal reconstruction to address a partial or complete rhinectomy. Traditionally, the three-dimensional (3D) nasal defect is manually templated intraoperatively to design the two-dimensional (2D) flap shape on intact morphology. In this clinical study, digital preoperative planning is used to template with computer-assisted design and manufacturing. Preoperative digital templates were implemented for 3 representative patients (1 in Supplementary Digital Content, http://links.lww.com/SCS/D60). This includes designs for a hemi-rhinectomy case from 3D mirroring, a partial total rhinectomy case generated from a 3D scan, and a total rhinectomy case generated from a 3D morphable model based on a prepathology 2D photo. Digital unwrapping flattened the patient's 3D nasal geometry designs to 2D skin flap shapes. Finally, the 2D designs were printed as traceable intraoperative templates at a 1:1 scale. This clinical study demonstrates the application of digital 3D preoperative templating to improve workflow for nasal reconstruction.
