Description
Pham Trung and co-authors report the first results of hip replacement surgery guided by custom 3D-printed instruments made inside the hospital, in a 2023 study from Vietnam. Thirty-four patients received total hip replacements planned from CT scans. The printed guides fit onto the bone and steered the surgeon to ream the socket and cut the thigh bone along the planned lines.
The guides took about three days to prepare. Implant sizes matched the plan in over ninety percent of cases, and most cup angles landed within five degrees of target. Two-thirds of patients walked on the day of surgery, surgery averaged about eighty-two minutes, and no complications were reported.
