Virtual Surgical Planning Mandibular Reconstruction Custom Plate
ClinicalTrials.gov Studies
Summary
This ClinicalTrials.gov registry entry documents a study evaluating virtual surgical planning (VSP) and custom-made implants in mandibular reconstruction, particularly for patients with extensive defects following ablative tumor surgery. The trial assesses the use of CAD/CAM-manufactured surgical guides alongside custom plates and split rib bundle bone grafts to improve surgical accuracy and patient outcomes. The study provides informational data on computer-assisted approaches in maxillofacial reconstruction but does not establish compliance obligations for regulated entities.
“In mandibular reconstruction, computer-assisted procedures, including virtual surgical planning (VSP) and Custom-made implants, have become an integral part of routine clinical practice.”
About this source
ClinicalTrials.gov is the NIH-run registry of every clinical trial conducted in the United States, plus most international trials sponsored by US-based companies or institutions. By federal law, sponsors must register Phase 2 through Phase 4 studies before enrolling patients and post results within a year of completion. This feed tracks every new trial registration and study update, around 700 a month: drug interventions, device studies, behavioral protocols, observational research. Watch this if you scout drug candidates moving into mid or late-stage development, monitor competitor pipelines, or follow rare disease research where new trials signal patient hope. GovPing parses sponsor, phase, intervention, and target indication on each entry.
What changed
This ClinicalTrials.gov registry entry records a new clinical study (NCT07551154) investigating virtual surgical planning combined with custom-made plates and split rib bundle bone grafts for mandibular reconstruction. The trial focuses on patients with mandibular injuries following ablative tumor surgery and evaluates computer-assisted approaches including surgical guides for osteotomy, resection, and predrilling. The study acknowledges potential benefits of computer-based methods (higher accuracy, efficiency, superior outcomes) alongside limitations (additional costs, restricted availability).
For compliance officers and legal professionals, this registry entry is informational and does not create regulatory obligations or compliance requirements. Healthcare providers conducting or considering similar surgical approaches may find the study relevant for clinical decision-making, but no reporting or procedural requirements are imposed by this registration.

Virtual Surgical Planning of Mandibular Reconstruction Using Custom Made Plate and Split Rib Bundle Bone Graf
N/A NCT07551154 Kind: NA Apr 24, 2026
Abstract
In mandibular reconstruction, computer-assisted procedures, including virtual surgical planning (VSP) and Custom-made implants, have become an integral part of routine clinical practice. Especially complex cases with extensive defects after ablative tumor surgery benefit from a computer-assisted approach. Various CAD/ CAM-manufactured tools such as surgical guides (guides for osteotomy, resection and predrilling) support the transition from virtual planning to surgery. Custom made implants are of particular value as they facilitate both osteosynthesis and the positioning of bone elements. Computer-based approaches may be associated with higher accuracy, efficiency, and superior patient outcomes. However, certain limitations should be considered, such as additional costs or restricted availability. In the future, automation of the planning process and augmented reality techniques, as well as MRI as a nonionizing imaging modality, have the potential to further improve the digital workflow.
