A novel custom cutting guide for curved peri-acetabular osteotomy (CPO) improved surgical accuracy and safety. This method effectively prevented severe complications, demonstrating its clinical utility in hip surgery.

Area of Science:

Orthopedic surgery
Surgical innovation
Hip joint biomechanics

Background:

Curved peri-acetabular osteotomy (CPO) offers excellent clinical outcomes for hip conditions.
However, CPO is technically challenging and associated with severe complications.
Accurate osteotomy planning and execution are crucial for patient safety.

Purpose of the Study:

To evaluate a novel method for setting the cutting line and direction in CPO.
To assess the efficacy of a custom-designed cutting guide for individual patients undergoing CPO.

Main Methods:

A novel cutting guide system was developed using 3D plaster models from CT data.
The cutting line was planned on color-coded plaster models, and a custom titanium guide was fabricated via rapid prototyping.

The guide directed osteotomy, and outcomes were evaluated in seven CPO patients.

Main Results:

No major osteotomy-related complications (e.g., posterior column fracture) occurred.
The actual surgical cutting line closely matched the planned cutting line in all cases.
The custom cutting guide system demonstrated high accuracy and safety.

Conclusions:

The developed color-coded plaster model and custom cutting guide system are effective for CPO.
This innovative approach helps avoid severe complications associated with curved peri-acetabular osteotomy.
The method enhances the safety and precision of CPO procedures.
