PurposeThis study evaluates the accuracy of a statistical shape model (SSM) for virtual fracture reconstruction of the lateral midface.Materials and MethodsA uniform bony defect of the right zygoma was created. A virtual reconstruction was performed by using the standard procedure of mirroring the unaffected to the affected side (Group I) and by using the statistical model based on 178 pathologically unaffected CT scans (Group II). The accuracy of the statistical shape model was evaluated in comparison to the present mirroring protocol. The reconstructed region was compared with the original bone evaluating the mean deviation of both surfaces.ResultsAll zygomas could be reconstructed with all methods. On the affected side the mean deviation was 1.10mm +/-0.23mm in group I and 0.85mm +/-0.26mm in group II. The differences between the groups were significant.ConclusionSSM offers a more precise reconstruction of midface defects than mirroring procedures. As an additional element SSM could automatize the CAS workflow in many respects.
