Abstract
Background: tA growing body of evidence has recently utilized 3D assessment to follow up on the volume reduction after
marsupialization of maxillofacial cysts and the need for enucleation. Materialise Mimics software has been widely used for
that purpose. Recently, computer-aided design (AutoCAD) has proven its reliability in assessing the change in cyst volume in
a wide range of surgeries.
Purpose: To compare the accuracy of two computer programs (commercial computer-aided design (AutoCAD) and Materialise
Mimics) in measuring the volume reduction of cysts post marsupialization.
Materials and Methods: We conducted a case-series study on 15 patients with radicular cysts who underwent marsupialization.
The determination of cyst measured volume was carried out using AutoCAD and Mimics pre-operatively and up to nine months
after the procedure.
Results: Using AutoCAD software, the volume (mm3) estimated and average (±SD) of 29037.9,13759.9±10137.8 ,94.994±
3303.7±1984.4 ,4579.1±3276.6 mm3 in pre-marsupialization, 3-, 6-, and 9-months post-marsupialization; respectively. With
Mimics software, the volume (mm3) recorded an average (SD) of 29041.04579.0±3275.0 ,13761.4±10144.6 ,94994.5±, and
1984.63303.9± mm3 in pre-marsupialization, 3-, 6-, and 9-months post-marsupialization; respectively. The difference between
measures carried out by MIMIC and AutoCAD software was non-significant (p>0.05) at all checked follow-up time points (pre-
, 3-, 6-, 9- months post-marsupialization)
Conclusion: Computer-aided (AutoCAD) assessment of post-marsupialization volume reduction of maxillofacial cysts is a
readily available, easy-to-use, cheap, and accurate option to be contemplated along with Mimics software.
