Computer Aided Design/Computer Aided Manufacturing‐Guided Scapular Tip Free Flap Reconstruction for Complex Maxillofacial Defects
CAD/CAM-assisted STFF reconstruction allows accurate three-dimensional restoration with shortened operative and ischemia times, leading to predictable functional recovery and favorable aesthetic outcomes. Despite the need for additional preoperative planning and resources, this approach enhances intraoperative efficiency and provides reproducible results, representing a valuable option for selected patients with complex maxillofacial defects.
