An Experimental Image Guided Surgery Simulator for Hemicriolaryngectomy and Reconstruction by Tracheal Autotransplantation

In this paper we describe the current state of our surgical planning environment for a conservation method for unilateral glottic cancer with significant subglottic extension. The latter consists of a hemicricolaryngectomy and subsequent reconstruction of the laryngeal defect with a transferable patch of revascularized cervical trachea.
