@MayoClinic multidisciplinary team work between plastic surgery and radiology is changing the paradigm of facial trauma reconstruction ; virtual planning and 3D printing is the new way
When patients experience complex facial fractures, understanding the CT scans is difficult but so is reconstruction in the operative room. Using #3Dprinting to create #education models as well as patient specific models = better care. #plasticsurgery#face#radiology#ENT#3D
A new year is about to begin. May 2024 be even more amazing, filled with love, happiness, and achievements. Meeting new friends and amazing colleagues around the world, learning and growing together have been the highlight of my 2023.
We concluded the Inaugural Mendelson Advanced Facial Anatomy, lifting & contouring Hands-on course. We had great 3 days of intense learning with over 60 surgeons & faculty from 20 countries. Special thanks to @JayMorris_MD & @PerisCelda for helping us teach these concepts in 3D
Reconstructing post traumatic deformities with @BaselSharafMD using age matched normals or #mirror imaging & #3Dprinting helps the patient look & feel normal. Our #face is the way the world interacts with us. So looking like yourself again helps you heal. #Healing#plasticsurgery
Looking forward to teaching in the next MAFAC in Amsterdam advanced facial anatomy in #deepplanefacelift surgery on November 17 with world renowned faculty; the Aesthetic QMP meeting will follow on November 18-20
Variations in the human skull are as numerous as the stars. When #plasticsurgery reconstructs congenital anomalies #3D printed patient specific life size skulls w/ #heat maps for cortical thickness & sinus anatomy are helpful in surgical planning. @BaselSharafMD#DigitalTwins
#Eppocratis allows for pre-operative virtual surgery ; fractures are reduced ,symmetry confirmed pre-op ;The fixation plates act as guides ; Collaboration between plastic surgery @MayoClinicSurg & @JayMorris_MD & Tori Sears @MayoRadiology make this happen
Nasal bone fractures & other facial fractures can be complex. Getting proper #aesthetic results from a reconstruction by @BaselSharafMD requires proper planning & understanding of patients #anatomy. #3Dprinting models pre op also help in training. #3D#plasticsurgery#trauma
#MayoClinicMN’s Center for Aesthetic Medicine and Surgery is dedicated to helping patients age gracefully, so they can feel confident. https://t.co/XmTdS3BIaE
