Abstract
Three-dimensional computed tomographic (3D CT) scans were used in the assessment of three cases being considered for craniofacial reconstructive surgery; the first patient had a frontal encephalocele, the second an orbital encephalocele and the third an apparent asymmetry of the face due to cervical scoliosis caused by developmental defects of the upper two cervical vertebrae. The 3D CT scans provided information which was of great help in deciding how best to manage each case.Keywords
