Application of three dimensional (3D) curved multi-planar reconstruction images in 3D printing mold assisted eyebrow arch keyhole microsurgery.

ABSTRACT: OBJECTIVE:The application of multi-planar reconstruction of three dimensional (3D) curved surface in microsurgery of 3D printing mold assisted eyebrow arch keyhole approach was studied. METHODS:Eighty patients with intracranial aneurysms who underwent treatment at our hospital were enrolled. The patients were divided into two groups: the traditional eyebrow keyhole approach microsurgery group (38 cases in the conventional treatment group) and the three-dimensional curved surface multi-plane reconstruction image combined with 3D printing technology assisted eyebrow keyhole approach microsurgery group (42 cases in the 3D printing assisted treatment group). The Hunt-Hess classification was used to make a preliminary estimation of the patient's condition. The 3D curved multi-planar reconstruction method was used to assist the surgical plan; CT scan was used to establish a 3D printing mold, and the patient's condition and surgical plan were accurately analyzed before surgery. The operative time and the size of the incision area were recorded; postoperative GOS score and postoperative complications were statistically investigated. RESULTS:The 3D printing assisted treatment group (70.13 ± 15.56), (411.26 ± 10.38) mm2 , the operative time and incision area were significantly shorter than the conventional treatment group (120.35 ± 20.46), (663.55 ± 13.54) mm2 , p < .05); the GOS score showed that the 3D printing-assisted treatment group was significantly higher than the conventional treatment group (p < .05). The postoperative complication rate was significantly lower in the 3D print-assisted treatment group (9.52%) than in the conventional treatment group (47.36%, p < .05); the cure of intracranial aneurysms in the 3D printing assisted treatment group was more thorough than that in the conventional treatment group, and the difference was significant (p < .05). CONCLUSION:Compared with the conventional eyebrow arch-hole approach microsurgery, the 3D surface multi-planar reconstruction image combined 3D printing assisted technology was safer and more effective, and the postoperative recovery was better and the incidence of complications was lower.
