title: CT-guided stereolithography as a new tool in craniofacial surgery.
abstract: CT-guided stereolithography provides an acrylic model which exactly replicates the original structure. It allows optimal preoperative planning and intraoperative management. This application proved advantageous in surgical correction of a wide midline craniofacial cleft in a baby.
