Hi! I’m new in 3slicer, i had only one case of mandibulectomy in 3 d slicer the past month.
Now I’have a problem when i do te positioning of mandibolar plane. Why when i set mandibular plane in correct position they cut off a piece of contralateral mandible ? So i can’t have a pre plating model to print with all the mandible .
For Example i had to do a recostruction of left ramus. When i set my 3 mandibular plane, the “prolong” the cut also in the right ramus, cutting condile and other pieces.

Hi mauro ! How are you ?
First thanks for your suggests and your work! Thank you so much.
I would like to ask you another advice.
When designing a surgical guide for the fibula, there is often a tendency to design the guide to fit perfectly to the bone.
This is a big problem because, although you always try to preserve the periosteum on the lateral side of the fibula, there are muscle insertions on the anterior/medial side that make the fibula thicker than the bone portion alone.
How can I generate a surgical guide that is 1-2 millimeters wider?
Is possible for example to :
A-Hollow the fibula 1-2 millimetres
B-add another segment and hollowing it for the surgical guide , based on precedent hollwing (letter A). And Using this for the fibula surgical guide ?
Thank you !!!
After you create the hollow guidebase, you should be able to use margin effect with a negative value to get the result you are looking for
