【 摘 要 】

Background Stereolithographic (SLA) models have become a valuable resource in preoperative planning in maxillofacial reconstruction. The objective of this study was to perform a defect specific analysis of the utility of SLA models. The goal was to determine the manner in which the perceived benefit of preoperative modeling translates to measurable clinical advantages.
