Abstract:
Three-dimensional(3D)printing technology,which is based on computer aided design,presents innovative solutions for clinical surgical treatments and is increasingly being utilized in clinical settings.By integrating medical-image processing software and a 3D printer with customized materials,physicians can efficiently fabricate a 3D model layer by layer,thus realizing the reconstruction of human-body models with specific objectives.These models vividly showcase the anatomical structures,fracture types,and rupture severity,thereby facilitating doctors in understanding the fracture being examined.Beyond serving as a mere demonstration tool,the physi-cal model assists doctors in designing personalized implants and selecting customized surgical guide plates and fixation screws.Surgeons can improve the surgical accuracy and efficacy by refining the surgical plan via preoperative simulation operations.This article presents a summary of the application of computer-simulation surgery in conjunction with 3D printing technology in various complex surgeries.Addi-tionally,the significant potential applications of 3D printing technology in the clinical orthopedics field are discussed.
