Establishment of three-dimensional mirror image plane of hemifacial microsomia: a new method / 中华整形外科杂志

ABSTRACT

Objective@#To discuss the establishment of three-dimensional mirror image plane ofhemifacial microsomia.@*Methods@#32 cases of hemifacial microsomia from Jan. 2006 to Jan. 2017 were collected in our hospital. CT scanning was performed for all patients. Then, the deformity characteristics were summarized through three steps: 3D reconstruction, mirror and discrepancy analysis.@*Results@#After statistical analysis, the stability of these three points was good. Clinical result showed that the patient′s appearance was greatly improved.@*Conclusions@#Using these three points to determine the mirror image plane is helpful to analyze the patient's facial features and facilitate the surgical design.
