The blow suffered by the player Sergej Milinkovic-Savic during Fiorentina-Lazio last week he worried the Lazio fans a lot in view of the final sprint for the Champions League. In a few days, all the most advanced clinical technologies were made available and teamwork was carried out to try to bring the athlete back to the field as soon as possible.
The capital itself, with Udine, Turin and Verona, hosts one of the most advanced international centers for precision interventions in the field maxillofacciale of this type. A team of specialists of proven ability and experience, with cutting-edge tools, multidisciplinary approaches, synergies between different doctors, surgeons and engineers constitute the heart and soul to achieve such an important result from the medical and surgical rehabilitation point of view in Italy.
“This mask represents an excellent solution of our study center in Rome. Having the patient’s CT scan available, it is possible to create a three-dimensional image of the face and build a 3D prototype tailored to the individual “explains the Prof. Piero Cascone, Head physician maxillofacial Policlinico Umberto I Rome
A week ago Milinkovic-Savic suffered a nose injury. Upon closer examination, a displaced fracture of the nasal bones emerged. “The surgery to which the sample was immediately subjected on Sunday morning lasted about 30 minutes – said prof. Piero Cascone, head of maxillofacial surgery at the Policlinico Umberto I and at the Clinica Paideia – With this surgery it was possible to reduce the nasal bone fracture that had been caused. By 6pm on Sunday the boy had already been discharged. Then he started wearing a custom-made retention mask on his face with the most sophisticated engineering techniques available ”.
Three-dimensional technology is used only in a few centers of excellence. We made the digital mask in a couple of days – concluded Prof. Cascone – This mask represents a product of excellence of the Paideia Clinic in Rome. When the patient’s CT scan is available, a three-dimensional image of the face is created and a prototype, also three-dimensional, is built for a protective mask tailored to the patient’s needs. It thus becomes an emblematic personalized garrison of the most recent development of precision medicine with ultramodern technologies. It can also be achieved in the absence of a CT scan, through a facial laser-scanner, that is an image acquisition system that allows you to determine a three-dimensional volume of the face to achieve the same result “.
