Overview

This observational analysis evaluates volumetric outcomes in adolescents with clefts, indicating enhanced surgical planning and follow-up.

Key Points

  • The preoperative cleft volume averaged 1505 mm3, while the grafted volume was measured at 1983 mm3, indicating substantial initial grafting.
  • After six months, the mean integrated bone volume was 851 mm3, suggesting significant resorption rates of around 57%.
  • Utilizing cone-beam computed tomography, the study implemented a standardized 3D workflow for precise assessments in cleft patient care.
  • This protocol may enhance the accuracy of surgical planning and improve cross-study comparability moving forward.
