Advancing Precision Rhinoplasty: Preoperative Digital 3D Surgical Planning.

ABSTRACT

The aim of the study is to assess the efficacy and advantages of utilizing state-of-the-art three-dimensional (3D) reconstruction technology in preoperative planning for rhinoplasty surgery. It is a study of a single rhinoplasty case that was operated at a tertiary hospital. The patient was assessed through a detailed history, blood investigations, radiological investigations and preoperative 3D (three-dimensional) reconstruction of the face and nose. The study utilized high-resolution CT scans and 3D reconstruction software like 3D (three-dimensional) Slicer and Blender 3D (three-dimensional) to analyze nasal anatomy for preoperative planning in rhinoplasty. External and internal nasal measurements were taken, and axial cross-section analysis was conducted to assess nasal structure deviation. The benefits of 3D (three-dimensional) visualization in surgical planning were evaluated, and surgical management was based on preoperative reconstructions. Comprehensive preoperative evaluations were performed, adhering to ethical guidelines. Preoperative 3D (three-dimensional) reconstruction planning methods facilitated precise surgical planning and execution in rhinoplasty with satisfactory outcomes for both the patient and the surgeon. Incorporating 3D (three-dimensional) reconstruction technology in rhinoplasty preoperative planning enhances surgical precision and patient satisfaction, ensuring optimized surgical outcomes while adhering to ethical standards.
