简要总结
Virtual Surgical Planning (VSP), where 3D modeling is used to create 3D-printed surgical guides, has been shown to improve outcomes for patients who undergo mandibular reconstruction surgery, usually due to invasion of cancer from the oral cavity to the jaw. This trial will directly compare the outcomes of patients who receive VSP versus patients who receive the current standard of care, which is Free-Hand Surgery (FHS). They will be randomized into either treatment at a 1:1 ratio and bony union rates will be compared between 12-month postoperative CT scans for each treatment group. Secondary objectives include comparing other short and long-term complication rates, reconstruction accuracy, quality of life, and functional outcomes of VSP and FHS. An economic analysis of VSP will also be performed.

研究组 & 干预措施
Virtual Surgical Planning (VSP)
The trial research engineer (RE), located at Vancouver General Hospital (VGH), will segment the CT data to create a 3D model for surgical planning. During the teleconference between site surgeon (SS) and RE, the RE will load the CT data and the segmented 3D model into the virtual planning environment. With the RE navigating the software, which was created in-house at VGH and used in a previous case series, the SS will determine the extent of disease and define the resection planes. After the cutting planes are created, the RE will use the software to create the reconstruction plan with either the patient-specific fibula or scapula. Once the surgeon is satisfied with the plan, the teleconference will end and the RE will create and 3D print the surgical guides for the mandible, for the fibula or scapula, as well as the 3D computed reconstruction.
干预措施: Virtual Surgical Planning (VSP) (Procedure)
Free-Hand Surgery (FHS)
In FHS, the site surgeon will proceed with the surgery as per their routine practice.

结局指标
主要结局
Bony Union
时间窗: Assessed on CT scans 12 months postoperatively
The primary outcome is nonunion as assessed by two independent radiologists at Vancouver General Hospital, blinded to the intervention, based on the 12-month postoperative CT scan. Each apposition (between native bone-flap or between flap segments) will be assessed as nonunion, partial union, and complete union. Cases where there is disagreement between reviewers will undergo consensus review, any persisting disagreements will be reviewed by a third radiologist and classification will be based on the majority vote.
