Virtual surgery study for jaw tumor removal
Part of Cancer clinical trials.
This trial tests a computer method to plan safe removal of a non-cancerous jaw tumor called ameloblastoma. It may help surgeons see the exact area to remove to reduce the chance of the tumor coming back.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You have a jaw tumor called ameloblastoma, confirmed by a biopsy.
- Your tumor requires removal of a segment of your lower jaw, but not the part near your jaw joint.
- You do not have an active infection at the surgical site.
- You have not had the same tumor come back after a prior surgery.

This trial is studying a method to rebuild part of the lower jaw using a blood-supply bone replacement, so you can later get dental rehabilitation. It’s for adults who need a sizable, tumor-free jaw bone reconstruction and who can safely undergo surgery.
This trial is testing a bone plate used to rebuild the lower jaw after removing a non-cancerous growth. It may help patients who need surgery to remove a benign lesion from the center of their jawbone.
This trial uses computer scans to create facial shape meshes for patients who had jaw surgery to correct an underbite. It aims to improve planning for future surgeries.
This study helps teams plan surgery for people who need part of the lower jaw removed and rebuilt using special tissue flaps. It mainly looks at whether having specific pre-surgery CT images is possible and useful for reconstruction planning.
This study collects real-world information from people undergoing jaw reconstruction after their jaw bone was damaged (from cancer and certain medicines). It may help improve future treatment planning by tracking surgical choices and outcomes.
This study tests an AI-assisted method for reconstructing the lower jaw after removing benign tumors or cysts. It aims to improve both accuracy and appearance of the rebuilt jaw.
