At the end of the day, the more you practice the better a surgeon you become. Being able to use 3D printed models that mimic tissues from bone to vessels provides us with an incredible opportunity to create high fidelity simulation models.

Patient-specific cutting guides, prior to reconstruction with a fibula free-flap. Teeth roots and nerves are avoided.

Patient-specific cutting guides for fibula free-flap reconstruction

Patient-specific fibula guide. The guide allows the surgeon to harvest the fibula flap exactly as planned, by guiding the ideal cutting planes.

3D model of a patient-specific fibula guide

Patient-specific reconstruction plate. The plate is designed based on the surgical simulation and is then 3D printed. No adaption is needed during the surgery as the plate perfectly fit the reconstruction and patient’s anatomy.
