Main Article Content
Abstract
Materials and Methods: A retrospective study on lower limb disease in patients treated at our institution, analyzing each stage of the procedure and its applicability in planning, surgical execution, and implant development.
Results: We describe 12 cases in which 3D printing was used to treat acetabular defects, bone tumor resections, and long bone sequelae.
Conclusions: Our series and the literature reviewed demonstrate that 3D printing-assisted surgery improves plan predictability while also reducing surgical times, bleeding, and intraoperative radiation at a reasonable cost. Furthermore, no complications from this technology have been reported.
