Figure Lengend Snippet: Deviation of facial landmarks in i3Dface and 3dMD fittings to CBCT images. (A) Diagram of CBCT image alignment with 3D facial reconstructions from i3Dface and 3dMD (a-c), with marked facial landmarks. (d) Illustration of structural distortions in CBCT images, including blurred lateral canthus points, missing nasal tips, and premental point displacement. (B) Deviation differences of each facial landmark when fitting i3Dface and 3dMD to CBCT images. * P <0.05.

Article Title: The arc-technique using a photodynamic nail in a dysmorphic fragility fracture of the posterior pelvic ring – a technical note & case report

doi: 10.1016/j.tcr.2026.101330

Figure Lengend Snippet: A-D show representative axial CT-scan reconstructions with the fracture lines and bone stock loss marked by the arrows. E shows an axial view with a the planned implant corridor in the S1 body, F shows a 3D-reconstruction with preoperative implant planning (3D-Trauma, Sectra, Sweden). Screw templates were used to mimic the corridors for the photodynamic nail implants, therefore two oblique 8.0 mm corridors were planned to mimic the arc-like configuration of the implant Additionally a transiliosacral corridor was planned in S2 and a antegrade corridor for the left superior pubic ramus was planned.

Figure Lengend Snippet: The arc-technique is shown step by step. A: shows the illustration of the guide-wire placement of the left side. The intraoperative 3D-navigation planning is shown which helped to find the correct corridor. A 2.8 × 450 mm guide-wire was placed and drilled using a 5.0 mm cannulated drill. B: shows the illustration of the guide-wire placement of the right side. The intraoperative 3D-navigation planning is shown which helped to find the correct corridor. A 2.8 × 450 mm guide-wire was placed and drilled using a 5.0 mm cannulated drill. C: shows the placement of a 2.0 mm ball-tip guide-wire which crossed from side to the other. D: Shows the reaming over the 2.0 mm ball-tip guide-wire up to the 8.5 mm flexible drill, followed by changing the 2.0 mm to a 1.2 mm ball-tip guide-wire. The clinical image shows both ends of the guide-wire after changing for the 1.2 mm guide-wire. E: Shows the placement of the implant sheath, which is radiologically confirmed and was removed after inserting the implant in it. The clinical image shows. F: Shows the fully filled and cured photodynamic nail (highlighted blue).

Figure Lengend Snippet: A: shows the placement of the S2 transiliosacral photodynamic nail. Therefore, the corridor was planned using the 3D-navigation, afterwards a 2.8 × 450 mm guide-wire was placed and after drilling finally changed to a 1.2 ball-tip guide-wire for implant placement. B: shows the placement of the superior pubic ramus screw. The intraoperative 3D-navigation planning and the placement of a elastic nail to get into the curved corridor. After drilling the implant sheath was inserted (marked by the blue arrows).
