TRIGO, Guillermo; PAGANINI, Carlos Israel; SAIZ, Gerardo Francisco  and  ISABEL VILACHA, Marina. Precision in 3D surgical planning in a patient with Goldenhar syndrome. Rev Esp Cirug Oral y Maxilofac [online]. 2016, vol.38, n.2, pp.91-95. ISSN 2173-9161.  https://dx.doi.org/10.1016/j.maxilo.2014.07.005.

Aim: Submit a case of a patient with Goldenhar syndrome. The Materialise CMF^® (Leuven, Belgium) software was used for planning her facial asymmetry correction. Case report: Female patient aged 27 who suffers from Goldenhar syndrome. He underwent orthognathic surgery to correct facial asymmetry. For diagnosis, surgical planning and simulation case 3D Materialise CMF^® software (Leuven, Belgium) was used. Conclusions: The traditional method of planning is not necessary, these inaccuracies are an accumulation of errors in the whole process. These concepts assume great importance in cases of asymmetric deformities where the 2-dimensional methods are insufficient, leaving much room for intuition, for the professional ability and therefore for error. The method of 3D planning facilitates the study, planning and transfer of what is thought to surgery, minimizing errors and achieving maximum accuracy.
