CASE REPORT
A fabricação de modelos anatômicos tridimensionais (3D), a partir de projetos auxiliados por computador e manufatura aditiva, tem contribuído para o progresso substancial do campo da Neurocirurgia, incluindo a Neurocirurgia Cerebrovascular. Alguns autores conseguiram gerar modelos individualizados de redes vasculares complexas, como as malformações arteriovenosas, para facilitar o planejamento cirúrgico, obter melhores resultados, ensinar pacientes e residentes, e reduzir o tempo e as possíveis complicações perioperatórias. Assim, a manufatura aditiva facilita a simulação cirúrgica sem causar danos ao paciente. Este estudo ilustra um caso clínico em que essa tecnologia foi empregada no planejamento pré-operatório de uma malformação arteriovenosa.
Three-dimensional (3D) anatomical models manufacture based on computer-aided designs and additive manufacturing has contributed to the substantial progress of the Neurosurgery, including Cerebrovascular Neurosurgery. Some authors have managed to build individualized models of complex vascular networks, such as arteriovenous malformations, to facilitate surgical planning, obtain better results, teach patients and residents and reduce surgical time and possible perioperative complications. Thus, additive manufacturing facilitates surgical simulation without causing harm to the patient. This study illustrates a clinical case in which this technology was used in the preoperative planning of an arteriovenous malformation.
