Clinical implications of computer assisted surgical design in a carotid cave aneurysm.
In this report we demonstrate the application of computer assisted geometric design in the surgery of a carotid cave aneurysm. The method and basic concepts have been previously reported.(1) In this case report we referred to the previously published atlas of clinical images to input anatomical data. This enabled us to demonstrate and adequately identify microneurostructures for surgical simulation. The concepts and basic methods of computer assisted geometric design of microneurostructures are described.
