The Comparison Between Traditional Versus 3D Printing Combined With Computer Navigation Technique in the Management of Orbital Blowout Fractures.

ABSTRACT:

Background

Three-dimensional printing (3D printing) technology and computer navigation technology have been gradually applied in surgeries for orbital blowout fractures. This study compared the efficacy of traditional techniques (group I) and 3D printing combined with computer navigation technology-assisted techniques (group II) in the management of orbital blowout fractures.

Methods

All patients treated for orbital blowout fractures in the Affiliated Hospital of Yangzhou University from March 2018 to February 2021 were reviewed. The primary predictive variable was surgical techniques used for orbital fractures (traditional techniques or 3D printing combined with computer navigation technology-assisted techniques). Outcome variables included diplopia, limitation of extraocul
