Infants with craniosynostosis involving the metopic and coronal sutures require cranio-orbital reshaping to correct craniofacial dysmorphologic feature and to improve facial balance. Currently, surgical techniques to create a balanced fronto-orbital region are based on the surgeon's subjective approach and artistic vision in creating a normal shape to the forehead. To date, the use of age-matched templates and computer-assisted design/computer-assisted manufacturing techniques in optimizing the outcomes of surgical intervention in this area have not been explored. The aim of this article was to describe the process of template generation and application based on age-matched controls using computer-assisted design/computer-assisted manufacturing technology and to present this application in 2 cases. |
