Pre op and Post op CT scans

Post op


I've uploaded the 3D reconstruct of the post operative CT scan. This shows the location of the four titanium plates that were placed to reposition the bones to their appropriate locations. Not visible in this view: The titanium mesh material used to rebuild the base (interior) of the left eye socket. It looks pretty cool on the CT slices. When I see better, I'll see if there is a way to get a nice view of that. Nice job with the placement. Hats off to the surgeons!

Michelle suggested putting some 3D views from before surgery on this post so thy are here as well above the post op image. Note the displacement downward and inward of the cheekbone and also that it is smashed out on the side.

  1. Hey, you should put up a picture of the 3D skull before the surgery.
