[Surgical Simulation Using a Three-Dimensional Printer].
No Shinkei Geka. Neurological Surgery 2024 March
3D printers have been applied in bone-based surgeries, including craniofacial, plastic, oral, and orthopedic surgeries. The improved capabilities of diagnostic imaging equipment and 3D printers have enabled the development of more precise models, and research on surgical simulations and training in the field of neurosurgery is increasing. This review outlines the use of 3D printers in neurosurgery at our institution in terms of modeling methods and surgical simulations. Modeling with the powder-sticking lamination method using plaster as the material allows drilling, which is a surgical procedure. Therefore, it is useful for simulating skull base tumors, such as petrosectomy in a combined transpetrosal approach or anterior clinoidectomy in an orbitozygomatic approach. The color coding of each part of the model facilitates anatomical understanding, and meshed tumor modeling allows deep translucency. As shown above, the 3D printer's modeling ingenuity allows for useful surgical simulations for each case.
