Article Synopsis
- - The study investigates the process of using in-house CAD/CAM technology for head and neck cancer surgeries, particularly focusing on 3D printing biomodels and cutting guides.
- - The goal is to create a validated, cost-effective workflow for a 3D Printing Department in a Spanish university hospital using free software, comparing it with outsourcing options.
- - Results show that an in-house 3D Printing Department is practical, offering benefits like cost savings and faster production times, ultimately improving surgical procedures in the healthcare system.
Virtual surgical planning (VSP) and three-dimensional (3D) printing can increase precision and reduce surgical time in craniofacial reconstruction. However, the elevated cost and manufacturing time of outsourced workflows is increasing the development of in-house solutions. One of the main challenges in in-house workflows is to create cutting guides that hold plate position information.

So far three drugs have been linked: Pamidronate of disodium, Zoledronic acid and Alendronate of sodium. It is due to a non detected side effect in clinical trials before commercialization, and reverberates significantly in the quality of life of these patients.
