Role of Solid Model Simulation Surgery for Hemifacial Microsomia

Abstract: Distraction osteogenesis is now a standard procedure for hemifacial microsomia, and various methods have been described. However, it is sometimes difficult to obtain the horizontal occlusal plane and facial symmetry. This brief communication describes and discusses the usefulness of solid model simulation surgery for hemifacial microsomia.

“…Distraction osteogenesis is an alternative treatment option resulting in new bone formation between incrementally separated bony segments for patients with facial asymmetry and mandibular hypoplasia [39,40]. Even with this treatment procedure, it is sometimes difficult to obtain the horizontal occlusal plane and facial symmetry in HFM patients [41].…”

“…52 De todas formas, la simulación quirúrgica en un modelo sólido puede ayudar a lograr mejor simetría mandibular, especialmente en distracción ósea con multivector. 53 Es importante recalcar la necesidad de tomar en cuenta, más allá del estadio del crecimiento del paciente, las necesidades de tratamiento que éste tiene, ya que varían entre los pacientes, y por tanto cada caso debe ser analizado como único.…”

“…52 In anyways, the surgical simulation in a solid model can help achieve better mandible symmetry, especially in bone distraction with multivector. 53 It is important to stress the need to take into account, besides patient's growth state, his or her treatment needs, since they vary among patients, and therefore each must be analyzed as a unique case.…”
