Bacteriological and mechanical impact of the Sterrad sterilization method on personalized 3D printed guides for mandibular reconstruction

Abstract Surgical cutting guides are increasingly used for maxillofacial reconstruction. They are usually provided by laboratories. In recent years, surgical teams have published studies on the possibility of manufacturing their own cutting guides thanks to 3D printers. The object of this study is t...
