title: Computer-generated model surgery. An exacting approach to complex craniomaxillofacial disharmonies.
abstract: Description and applications are presented for a technique of craniomaxillofacial-model surgery. The technique utilizes models created by and based on computer technology. This paper is based on the experience derived from 22 cases in which computer-generated models were used as the means of evaluation, presurgical planning and practice.
