Simplifying Facial Feminization Surgery Using Virtual Modeling on the Female Skull
Osseous work in facial feminization has been largely developed by comparing the qualitative and quantitative anthropometric differences between male and female cadaveric skulls. While virtual surgical planning has allowed for improved accuracy and ease in osteotomies and recontouring procedures in f...

Sumario: | Osseous work in facial feminization has been largely developed by comparing the qualitative and quantitative anthropometric differences between male and female cadaveric skulls. While virtual surgical planning has allowed for improved accuracy and ease in osteotomies and recontouring procedures in facial feminization, ultimately, a subjective decision-making process is still required. In this work, we describe a novel method of simplifying facial feminization by virtually modeling all osseous surgical maneuvers for facial feminization with a reference female skull. |
