Using Symmetry and 3D Printed Medical Models to Repair Bone Fractures
In a new study, a team of researchers from China compared the clinical outcomes of treating isolated acetabular (concave surface of the pelvis) fractures with traditional 3D-printed planning models and…
Can a 3D Printed Model Improve the Outcome of Complex Tibial Plateau Fracture Surgery?
A complex tibial plateau fracture, mainly caused by high-energy injuries, affects the knee and generally means the person is unable to walk. If that isn’t hard enough, all kinds of…
3D Printing for Preoperative Management of Complex Orthopedic Cases
In the recently published, ‘Virtual preoperative planning and 3D printing are valuable for the management of complex orthopaedic trauma’ authors Abhishek Mishra, Tarun Verma, Abhishek Vaish, Riya Vaish, and Lalit…
Chinese Randomized Trial Looks at How Useful 3D Printed Models Actually Are in Treating Bone Fractures
Chinese researchers are examining how 3D printed models can improve treatment of fractures. Chunhui Chen, Leyi Cai, Wenhao Zheng, Jianshun Wang, Xiaoshan Guo, and Hua Chen of the Department of…
