3D Planning, Design, Engineering and Manufacture of custom implant

Diagnosis: segmental defect in acetabulum + combined cavitary type Paprosky IIIB.

Objective: restitution of normal joint function, development of customized acetabular reinforcement, restitution of anatomical axis, rotation center and anteversion.

Development:

  • virtual surgical planning,
  • 3d impression of anatomical biomodel,
  • engineering and development of tailor-made acetabular reinforcement with trabecular structure,
  • validation of design by means of workshop with specific bone structure of the patient printed 3d and prototypes of the prosthesis with interdisciplinary group of engineers, designers and doctors.
