This clinical report details the functional and esthetic rehabilitation of a patient with a severe maxillary defect secondary to subtotal maxillectomy for oral squamous cell carcinoma using a maxillary prosthesis anchored by 4 zygomatic implants. The procedure involved meticulous subtotal maxillectomy and defect repair with zygomatic implant support, incorporating advanced digital surgical methods, including 3D reconstruction, computer-guided surgery, and photogrammetry (Icam4D). A 3D finite element analysis was conducted to assess the method's efficacy in analyzing stress distribution around the zygomatic implants.

Article Synopsis
- SMARCB1 (INI-1) is a crucial tumor suppressor gene that prevents tumor formation in the SWI/SNF complex, and its mutations lead to aggressive SMARCB1-deficient tumors, such as sinonasal carcinomas, known for poorer prognosis, especially in elderly patients.
- A case study of a 66-year-old male with a 4-month-old cheek swelling was diagnosed with a SMARCB1-deficient sinonasal carcinoma, leading to a subtotal maxillectomy and subsequent chemotherapy and radiotherapy, resulting in no signs of recurrence at a 13-month follow-up.
- The study emphasizes that the loss of INI-1 expression due to homozygous deletion of SMARCB1 is
