The complex anatomy of the head and neck creates a formidable challenge for surgical reconstruction. However, good functional reconstruction plays a vital role in the quality of life of patients undergoing head and neck surgery. Precision medical treatment in the field of head and neck surgery can greatly improve the prognosis of patients with head and neck tumors. In order to achieve better shape and function, a variety of modern techniques have been introduced to improve the restoration and reconstruction of head and neck surgical defects. Digital surgical technology has great potential applications in the clinical treatment of head and neck cancer because of its advantages of personalization and accuracy.
Our department has identified the value of modern digital surgical techniques in the field of head and neck surgery and has explored its utility, including CAD/CAM technology and VR technology. We have achieved good results in the reconstruction of head and neck surgical resection defects.
In this article, we share five typical cases from the department of head and neck surgery where the reconstruction was performed with the assistance of digital surgical technology.
头颈部复杂的解剖结构给手术重建带来了巨大挑战。然而，良好的功能重建对接受头颈部手术患者的生活质量起着至关重要的作用。头颈部外科领域的精准医疗可极大改善头颈部肿瘤患者的预后。为了实现更好的外形和功能，已引入多种现代技术来改善头颈部手术缺损的修复与重建。数字外科技术因其个性化和准确性的优势，在头颈部癌症的临床治疗中具有巨大的应用潜力。
我们科室已认识到现代数字外科技术在头颈部外科领域的价值，并探索了其效用，包括计算机辅助设计/制造（CAD/CAM）技术和虚拟现实（VR）技术。我们在头颈部手术切除缺损的重建方面取得了良好效果。
在本文中，我们分享了来自头颈部外科科室的五例典型病例，这些病例是在数字外科技术辅助下进行重建的。
