Purpose: Aim of this study was to investigate whether a mold generated from a statistical shape model of
14 70
the orbit could be generated to provide a cost-efficient means for the treatment of orbital fractures.
15 71
16 Materials and Methods: A statistical shape model was created from 131 computed tomographic (CT) 72
17 scans of unaffected adult middle European human orbits. To generate the model, CT scans were 73
18 segmented in Brainlab software, preregistered using anatomic landmarks, trimmed to an identical size, 74
19 and definitely registered. Then, the model was created using the global master algorithm. Based on this 75
20 model, a mold consisting of a male part and a female part was constructed and printed using a rapid pro- 76
21 totyping technique. 77
22 Results: A statistical shape model of the human orbit was generated from 125 CT scans. Six scans (4.5%) 78
23 presented major anatomic deviations and were discarded. A solid mold based on this model was printed. 79
24 Using this mold, flat titanium mesh could be successfully deformed to serve as an orbital implant. 80
25 81
Conclusion: A mold based on the statistical orbital shape could serve as a cost-effective means for the
26 82
treatment of orbital fractures. It allows the anatomic preformation of titanium or resorbable implant ma-
27 83
terial for orbital reconstruction. Because these materials could be cut from larger sheets, the use of a mold
28 84
Q3 would be a cost-effective treatment alternative.
