Avulsion of the medial canthal tendon secondary to nasoorbitoethmoidal fractures leads to severe aesthetic and functional impairments. The tendon should be repositioned at the posterior lacrimal crest. Owing to the complexity of nasoorbitoethmoidal fractures, accurate location of this point during surgery can be challenging. With the aid of computer-assisted planning and surgical navigation, the point at which the medial canthal tendon should be repositioned can be easily and precisely located. We have developed an innovative navigation-assisted technique that increases the reliability and safety of internal canthus repositioning. We performed a case series of three consecutive patients who underwent medial canthal tendon repositioning using computer-assisted planning and surgical navigation. We believe that this innovation provides a new and useful application of computer-assisted planning and surgical navigation in craniomaxillofacial surgery.
鼻眶筛骨折继发内眦韧带撕脱会导致严重的美学和功能障碍。该韧带应重新定位至泪后嵴。由于鼻眶筛骨折的复杂性,手术中准确找到这一点具有挑战性。借助计算机辅助规划和手术导航,内眦韧带应重新定位的点能够轻松且精确地找到。我们开发了一种创新的导航辅助技术,提高了内眦复位的可靠性和安全性。我们对连续3例使用计算机辅助规划和手术导航进行内眦韧带复位的患者进行了病例系列研究。我们认为,这项创新为计算机辅助规划和手术导航在颅颌面外科手术中提供了一种新的、有用的应用。
