Advances in 3D printing and biomedical engineering in skull base and head and neck reconstruction
The intimate anatomy of the head and neck leads to unique reconstructive needs that require creative solutions. As one example, 3D surgical planning is becoming the mainstay for osteocutaneous resections and reconstructions, particularly for oral cavity cancer. With patient-centered thinking, there are numerous opportunities for the use of evolving technology to improve patient outcomes.
