Three-dimensional accuracy of bone contouring surgery for zygomaticomaxillary fibrous dysplasia using virtual planning and surgical navigation

Fibrous dysplasia (FD) is a benign condition in which normal cancellous bone is replaced by immature woven bone and fibrous tissue. The present study aimed to estimate and compare the three-dimensional (3D) accuracy of bone contouring surgery for zygomaticomaxillary fibrous dysplasia (FD) performed using virtual planning and surgical navigation versus using surgeon's intraoperative assessment.
