Publications
Computer-aided surgical treatment of bilateral choanal atresiaCarsten Westendorff
Department of Oral and Maxillofacial Surgery, Tubingen University Hospital, Tubingen, Germany
J Craniofac Surg 18:654-60. 2007..This clinical report demonstrates the feasibility of a combined approach with surgical navigation. A larger clinical series with long-term follow up will be needed to determine the reproducibility and validation of potential benefits...
Image-guided sphenoid wing meningioma resection and simultaneous computer-assisted cranio-orbital reconstruction: technical case reportCarsten Westendorff
Department of Oral and Maxillofacial Surgery, Tubingen University Hospital, Tubingen, Germany
Neurosurgery 60:ONSE173-4; discussion ONSE174. 2007..Rapid prototyping techniques have become widely used for treatment planning. Yet, the transfer of a treatment plan into the intraoperative situs strongly depends on the experience of the individual surgeon...
Computer-assisted surgical treatment of orbitozygomatic fracturesCarsten Westendorff
Department of Oral and Maxillofacial Surgery, Tubingen University Hospital, Tubingen, Germany
J Craniofac Surg 17:837-42. 2006..A larger clinical series with long-term follow-up will be needed to determine reproducibility and cost-effectiveness. In addition to bone repositioning, a future application may include simulation of craniofacial osteotomies...
Accuracy assessment of image-guided implant surgery: an experimental studyJürgen Hoffmann
Department of Oral and Maxillofacial Plastic Surgery, Tubingen University Hospital, Tubingen, Germany
Int J Oral Maxillofac Implants 20:382-6. 2005..To accurately accomplish the drilling of an implant socket, the use of image-guided navigation has become an option. The aim of this study was to evaluate the 3-dimensional (3D) accuracy of navigation-guided drilled holes...
Validation of 3D-laser surface registration for image-guided cranio-maxillofacial surgeryJürgen Hoffmann
Department of Oral and Maxillofacial Plastic Surgery, Tubingen University Hospital, Tubingen, Germany
J Craniomaxillofac Surg 33:13-8. 2005..A new markerless, high-resolution laser surface scan technique for patient registration has been tested in experimental and clinical settings...
Accuracy of navigation-guided socket drilling before implant installation compared to the conventional free-hand method in a synthetic edentulous lower jaw modelJürgen Hoffmann
Department of Oral and Maxillofacial Surgery, Tubingen University Hospital, Tubingen, Germany
Clin Oral Implants Res 16:609-14. 2005..8 mm) for NG drilled sockets. The differences between the two methods were highly significant (P<0.01). A potential benefit from image-data-based navigation in implant surgery is discussed against the background of cost-effectiveness...
Temporary intermaxillary fixation using individualized acrylic splints permits image-data-based surgery of the lower jaw and oropharynxJürgen Hoffmann
Department of Oral and Maxillofacial Plastic Surgery, Tubingen University Hospital, Tubingen, Germany
Laryngoscope 114:1506-9. 2004..Thus, in the case of moveable structures, for example the lower jaw, navigational procedures could not yet be applied...
Evaluation of dental injury following endotracheal intubation using the Periotest techniqueJürgen Hoffmann
Department of Oral and Maxillofacial Plastic Surgery, Tubingen University Hospital, Osianderstr, Germany
Dent Traumatol 21:263-8. 2005..Changes of periodontal attachment could not be detected by the Periotest technique. The Periotest technique does not seem to have the ability to detect early periodontal changes associated with endotracheal intubation...
Navigation-assisted sclerotherapy of orbital venolymphatic malformation: a new guidance technique for percutaneous treatment of low-flow vascular malformationsUlrike Ernemann
Department of Neuroradiology, , Hoppe-Seyler-Strasse 3, , Germany
AJNR Am J Neuroradiol 25:1792-5. 2004..By using a surgical navigation system (Vector Vision, BrainLAB, Munich, Germany), multiplanar target lesion visualization was performed after fusion of CT and MR imaging data, which allowed precise puncture planning...
Ossifying fibroma of the skull: interactive image-guided minimally invasive localization and resectionCarsten Westendorff
Department of Oral and Maxillofacial Plastic Surgery, , , Germany
J Craniofac Surg 15:854-8. 2004..Interactive multimodal planning and intraoperative image guidance offer an interesting approach for biopsy and minimally invasive removal of small ossifying fibroma lesions of the skull, especially in less accessible locations...
