Abstract

With continued advancements in #medical technology, the focus of treatment develop can shift from making an operation possible to achieving better long-term outcomes, and this means a greater #emphasis on the accuracy of medical treatments. Threedimensional (3D) printing is becoming a more mature technology, and its use is becoming more widespread. In the field of orthopedic diagnosis and treatment, 3D printing offers advantages for the accurate preoperative design of a #prosthesis, the manufacturing of an individualized prosthesis, and simulating surgery [1-13]. The results of computed tomography (CT), magnetic resonance imaging (MRI), and some other radiographic techniques provide the basis for fabricating structures via 3D printing. Several reports have described the use of 3D printing to model #complex fractures of the #pelvis and #acetabulum [14,15], and other studies [16,17] have used 3D printing to facilitate preoperative planning in patients with developmental #dysplasia of the hip.
