Q

basics of free flaps

A

aka free tissue transfer
flaps are autogenously “transplanted” tissue
- skin, muscle, fascia, bone

requirement for flap viability
- blood comes in and blood comes out

Q

typical applications of CASS

top three noted

A
  1. three dimensional models for treatment planning
  2. custom design prosthesis
  3. replication of segmental anatomic objects for fabrication of surgical reconstructive guides

Q

opportunities for error

A
  1. disconnect b/w ablative and reconstructive teams
  2. fibular osteotomies are ofen eyeballed
  3. bone to bone contact
  4. adequate ORTHOGNATHIC relationships
  5. condylar alignment
  6. proper placement of fibula in a anterior/ posterior and inferior superior dimensino

Q

phase 2 is

A

modeling
- life sized stereolithographic model of native craniofacial skeletn and / or pathology

  • cutting guides, reconstruction plating templates, occlusal splints
  • working stereolithographic models

16
Q

microvascular free fibula flap discovered when

A

1989– hidalgo first to report on a series of vascularized fibula grafs for mandibular reconstruction

17
Q

main disadvantage of microvascular free fibula flap is

A

LACK OF BONE STOCK
- insufficient bone for the reconstruction of both the skeletal base (inferior border of the mandible) and the alveolar ridge

resulting in vertical discrepency between reconstructed and unaffected sides
-lack of vertical height –

18
Q

pros of microvascular free fibula flap

A
  1. long vascular pedicle
  2. solid/ sizeable bone stock
  3. reliable blood supply
  4. distant donor site/ low donor morbidity
  5. ability to accuratley plan using 3-d sofware
19
Q

cons of microvascular free fibula flap

A
  1. bone stock
  2. lengthy operation
  3. complex with many opportunities for error

the main disadvantage of the fibula flap is the insufficient bone for the reconstruction of both the skeletal base (inferior border of mandible) and the alveolar ridge.

20
Q

microvascular free fibula is ability to carry —-

A

carry bone, skin, muscle, nd fascia

With an outstanding
length available for harvest, a solid and sizeable bone stock, a reliable blood supply, an allowance for manipulation of the components of the flap while maintaining adequate blood supply, and the ability to carry bone, skin, muscle and fascia, the fibula flap has become one of the most commonly used vascularized osseous and osteocutaneous flaps for reconstruction of defects around the body, especially the mandible

21
Q

Virtual surgery improves predictability and accuracy?

details

A

YES because the traditional microvascular free fibula

  • free hnd approach
  • operator / experience dependent
  • prone to inaccuracies, intra-op adjustments, rarely restored
22
Q

the future in terms of plates

A

technology enabling pre-milled plates

23
Q

potential drawbacks of CASS

A

cost
adaptability
increased preoperative planning time

24
Q

CASS offers

- list

A
  • optimal preoperative planning
  • decreased intra-operative time
  • teaching aide
  • improves expectations of both patient/ surgeon
  • promotes close coordination between ablative/ reconstruction teams
  • less invasive procedures??
