“…The interdisciplinary treatment adopted was greatly aided by the construction of the stereolithographic model, which served as a concrete focus for all participants during the planning of the surgical procedure and radiation therapy. While the use of models has been commonplace among dentists and oral surgeons for many years, it has only recently been used for complex craniofacial and neurosurgical procedures [15,16]. To date, there has been only one report of the use of modeling in the spine [17].…”

“…With the advent of 3D printers, models have been created using actual patient data to aid in the planning of complex surgical procedures as well as to explain such procedures to patients and their relatives. [1][2][3]6,8,12 However, until now most of these models have been constructed from a single material, and therefore have lacked certain details and realism. On the other hand, models with varying tissue properties described previously are expensive and difficult to make.…”

The advent of multimaterial 3D printers allows the creation of neurosurgical models of a more realistic nature, mimicking real tissues. The authors used the latest generation of 3D printer to create a model, with an inbuilt pathological entity, of varying consistency and density. Using this model the authors were able to take trainees through the basic steps, from navigation and planning of skin flap to performing initial steps in a craniotomy and simple tumor excision. As the technology advances, models of this nature may be able to supplement the training of neurosurgeons in a simulated operating theater environment, thus improving the training experience.

“…[30][31][32][33][34][35][36] Such models contain colored blood vessels and dural sinuses, cranial nerves, brain, silicon structures that can also be used for bypasses, bone-like structures that can be drilled, and synthetic dura mater that can be sutured. CT/magnetic resonance imaging (MRI)-based 3D models produced using laser-sintered powdered polymers and 3D printers are also used for anatomy training and surgery simulation, [37][38][39][40][41][42] allowing for biomodeling of skull base and associated tumors and other lesions.…”
