註釋Abstract: Background
This study evaluated the accuracy of computer-assisted surgery (CAS)-driven DCIA (deep circumflex iliac artery) flap mandibular reconstruction by traditional morphometric methods and geometric morphometric methods (GMM).

Methods
Reconstruction accuracy was evaluated by measuring distances and angles between bilateral anatomical landmarks. Additionally, the average length of displacements vectors between landmarks was computed to evaluate factors assumed to influence reconstruction accuracy. Principal component analysis (PCA) was applied to unveil main modes of dislocation.

Results
High reconstruction accuracy could be demonstrated for a sample consisting of 26 patients. The effect of the number of segments and length of defect on reconstruction accuracy were close to the commonly used significance threshold (p = 0.062/0.060). PCA demonstrated displacement to result mainly from sagittal and transversal shifts.

Conclusions
CAS is a viable approach to achieve high accuracy in mandibular reconstruction and GMM can facilitate the evaluation of factors influencing reconstruction accuracy and unveil main modes of dislocation in this context
