title: Digital import of orbital implants to enhance navigation in reconstruction of the deep orbit.
abstract: Stereotactic navigation has become established in orbital surgery. It can assist in exploration and reconstruction by preventing plate positioning errors and ensuring adequate restoration of deep orbital anatomy. Pre-formed and custom-made implants have become increasingly popular with reliable outcomes in complex orbital reconstructions, but may require adjustment at the time of surgery. Planning for reconstruction can be improved by import of digital models of implants into the navigation system. This technique allows on-table confirmation of successful orbital reconstruction.
