Active Comparator: Control grup Conventional surgery. |
Procedure: Standard surgery
Orbital decompression surgery will be previously planned and simulated using the actual standard methods.
|
Experimental: Intervention group Surgery planned, simulated and guided by 3D printing. |
Device: 3D printing model/guide.
Orbital decompression surgery will be previously planned and simulated using 3D-printed individualized models. In the operating room, surgery will be assisted with 3D-printed individualized guides.
