Using Virtual 3D Modeling in Clinical Application for Orbital Floor and Wallfractures

Orbital floor fractures or zygomatic orbital fractures are the most commonly encountered midfacial fractures. The technological advances in 3D printing allow the physical prototyping of 3D models, so it creates an accurate representation of the patient's specific anatomy. Surgical treatment of such fractures with the aid of pre-shaped, customized prosthesis based on the 3D anatomical model resulted in significant aesthetic and clinical improvement. It is possible to build anatomical models based on the computed tomography scan dataset. It is relatively inexpensive and can be used in the repair of the orbital floor and zygomatic orbital fractures
