A Novel Computer-Aided Design/Computer-Aided Manufacturing (CAD/CAM) 3D Printing Method for Nasal Framework Reconstruction Using Microvascular Free Flaps

The need for a total or subtotal nose resection represents a dramatic situation for any patient and a challenge for the reconstructive surgeon. Because even in the most skillful hands, an optimal result may be difficult to achieve. In this way, sometimes a free flap reconstruction is needed. A subto...

description The need for a total or subtotal nose resection represents a dramatic situation for any patient and a challenge for the reconstructive surgeon. Because even in the most skillful hands, an optimal result may be difficult to achieve. In this way, sometimes a free flap reconstruction is needed. A subtotal nasal reconstruction is presented using a fasciocutaneous free flap supported by computer-aided design (CAD), computer-aided manufacturing (CAM), and novel 3D printed guide to recreate the nasal cartilage framework. A successfully free flap reconstruction of the nasal framework was achieved supported by the CAD/CAM 3D printed template. We present a novel approach for nasal total or subtotal reconstruction using a CAD/CAM 3D printed model to create the nasal framework, based on the anatomical and radiological evaluation of the patient.
