Reconstruction of the midface represents a challenge for reconstructive microsurgeons given the formidable task of restoring both aesthetics and functionality. In particular, preservation of proper globe positioning and maintaining normal vision are as important as restoring the proper projection of the midface and enabling a patient to speak and eat as normally as possible. The introduction of virtual surgical planning (VSP) and medical modeling has revolutionized bony reconstruction of the craniofacial skeleton; however, the overwhelming majority of studies have focused on mandibular reconstruction. Here, we introduce some novel advances in utilizing VSP for bony reconstruction of the midface. The present review aims (1) to provide a review of the literature on the use of VSP in midface reconstruction and (2) to provide some insights from the authors' early experience.
重建中面部对于重建显微外科医生来说是一项挑战，因为他们需要完成恢复美观和功能的艰巨任务。特别是，保持眼球位置的正常和维持正常视力与恢复中面部的正常形态以及使患者尽可能正常地说话和进食一样重要。虚拟手术规划 (VSP) 和医学建模的引入彻底改变了颅面骨骼的骨重建;然而，绝大多数研究都集中在下颌骨重建上。在这里，我们介绍了一些利用 VSP 进行中面部骨重建的新进展。本综述旨在：(1) 回顾 VSP 在中面部重建中的应用文献；(2) 提供作者早期经验的一些见解。
