Three-dimensional virtual surgical planning using computer-aided design and modeling (CAD/CAM) has gained popularity in planning complex orthognathic and osteocutaneous free flap reconstructions of the head and neck because of its ability to guide complex geometric planning in three-dimensional space and save time in the operating room. The purpose of this study was to review our experience using CAD/CAM concepts in periorbital osteotomies. Three complex periorbital osteotomies were planned and performed: 1 case of bilateral vertical and horizontal orbital dystopia, 1 case of a Monobloc-Le Fort II in an Apert patient, and 1 case of recurrent hypertelorism in a patient with craniofrontal nasal dysplasia. The patients' charts were reviewed, including photographs, medical records, and CAD/CAM plans. The CAD/CAM planning sessions were held 3 to 6 weeks preoperatively and lasted approximately 1 hour. Both cutting guides and positioning guides were used, translating to significant precision of both the osteotomy as well as the final position of the orbits. Qualitatively, the cutting and positioning guides were easy to use and improved operating room efficiency. To conclude, in our hands, CAD/CAM virtual surgical planning is safe and effective in the performance of complex periorbital osteotomies. More work is needed to more clearly define surgical indications for this costly, new technology.

“…Computer-assisted surgery (CAS) planning was implemented in CMF surgery so that the complex anatomy of the patient can be understood, and that the surgical task can be improved preoperatively [19][20][21][22][23][24][25]. Orthognathic surgery represents an important part of CMF surgery and allows for correction of different dental and maxillofacial dysmorphoses, asymmetric faces, or craniofacial syndromes by cutting and moving the maxilla and/or the mandible according to a treatment plan.…”

A systematic review of the literature concerning surgical engineering in cranio-maxillofacial surgery was performed. A PubMed search yielded 1721 papers published between 1999 and 2011. Based on the inclusion/exclusion criteria, 1428 articles were excluded after review of titles and abstracts. A total of 292 articles were finally selected covering the following topics: finite element analysis (n = 18), computer-assisted surgery (n = 111), rapid prototyping models (n = 41), preoperative training simulators (n = 4), surgical guides (n = 23), image-guided navigation (n = 58), augmented reality (n = 2), video tracking (n = 1), distraction osteogenesis (n = 19), robotics (n = 8), and minimal invasive surgery (n = 7). The results show that surgical engineering plays a pivotal role in the development and improvement of cranio-maxillofacial surgery. Some technologies, such as computer-assisted surgery, image-guided navigation, and three-dimensional rapid prototyping models, have reached maturity and allow for multiple clinical applications, while augmented reality, robotics, and endoscopy still need to be improved.

“…The editors have selected reports of similar developments in the use of imaging in support of preoperative and intraoperative feature localization. The work reported by Hayashi et al [21] and by Vander Slaten et al [22] demonstrate advanced applications resulting from computational integration of imaging, direct physical measurement, and other patient data. Although the authors do not specifically report educational uses of their systems, the preoperative simulation aspects of both reports represent important harbingers for the future of medical education in the areas of anatomy and surgery.…”
