Overview of 3D VSP workflow, including the anterolateral view (upper row) and the matching caudal view (lower row). The 3D VSP starts with planning of the maxillectomy including the design of the cutting guide, with which the aim is to remove the purple part representing tumor removal (a, b). Hereafter the obturator prosthesis position is planned in the defect with the pre-planned screw access holes (c, d). The positions of the zygomatic implants are planned backward from this optimal position of the obturator prosthesis (e, f). The final step includes the design of the drilling and placement guide of the zygomatic implants (g, h)
