Abstract:
Pelvic and acetabular fractures are one of the serious traumatic diseases, leading to a high rate of disability and fatality. Their operative principles are anatomical repositioning and rigid fixation to achieve early functional exercise and avoid complications. The updating modern technology has made precision and minimally invasion a trend in orthopedic surgery. An increasingly number of new technologies has been applied in clinical surgery, such as three-dimensional printing, three-dimensional navigation, and orthopedic robotics, each with its own characteristics. Of them, three-dimensional printing technology is more advantageous in terms of reducing surgical cost and risk, enhancing surgical efficiency, achieving surgical precision and reducing radiation exposure, as evidenced by a large number of clinical case reports and randomized controlled trials. This paper summarizes the current situation and assesses the prospects of three-dimensional printing technology in the diagnosis and treatment of pelvic and acetabular fractures in order to provide reference for orthopedic colleagues.
