A few days ago, the Orthopaedic Hospital of the Second Hospital of Jilin University applied 3D printing technology to complete a talus replacement for a patient with talar necrosis. The patient recovered well after surgery.
The patient was 58 years old and had pain in the left ankle joint two years ago. The more recent painfulness was apparent, resulting in inconvenient walking. After the patient visited the Second Hospital of Ji Da, the patient was diagnosed with left talus necrosis. Traditionally, the treatment of this talus necrosis mainly adopts the method of joint fusion, but the joint fusion completely loses the joint function of the joint, and may increase the incidence of complications such as osteoporosis and pneumonia, and the rate of joint non-fusion is high. There will be a second surgery.
The medical team of the Orthopaedic Hospital of the Second Hospital of Jilin University carefully analyzed the patient's condition. According to the characteristics of the ankle joint, the optimal surgical plan for the talus prosthesis that perfectly matched the patient's 3D data was designed. At present, the patient has recovered well, and all aspects of the indicators are normal. Three days after the operation, the joint active activity practice has been carried out, and walking under the protection of the walking brace.
It is reported that the 3D Technology R&D Center of the Second Hospital of Ji Da University has completed the world's first 3D printing of elbow joints, shoulder joints, wrist joints, hip joints, semi-pelvis, knee joints and other operations in cooperation with related departments of orthopedic hospitals. The development of the 3D printed talus replacement surgery marks a new field in the province's 3D printing technology.
