Abstract or Artist's Statement
Osteoid osteomas are common, painful, osteoblast tumors that frequently present in adolescents and young adults. Surgical management is indicated for cases with associated symptoms, such as headaches, dizziness, diplopia, proptosis, sinusitis, and facial deformity. The authors report a case of a 15-year-old male with an enlarging frontal sinus osteoma. Virtual surgical planning was utilized to design a KLS Martin Resorbable plate for the graft site, as well as a cutting guide for the graft procedure. A split-calvarial bone graft was used to reconstruct the central bony defect in the anterior table of the frontal sinus. Virtual surgical planning sessions were initiated with KLS Martin biomedical engineers to design a graft. Design cutting guides were created for frontal craniotomy, and an interlocking cutting guide was created for the split calvarial bone graft. The graft was harvested from the non-dominant right parietal hemisphere to best match the curvature of the frontal bone. Post-operatively, the patient has not had any complications to date. This procedure proves to be a valuable consideration for the surgical treatment of pediatric osteomas.
