    Area of Science:

    • Orthopedic Surgery
    • Medical Imaging
    • Biomedical Engineering

    Background:

    • Complex acetabular fractures present significant surgical challenges.
    • Accurate preoperative planning and intraoperative guidance are crucial for successful outcomes.

    Purpose of the Study:

    • To describe a novel tactile surgical navigation system for complex acetabular fracture surgery.
    • To evaluate the utility of custom 3D bony pelvis models in surgical procedures.

    Main Methods:

    • 3D models of the bony pelvis were created from DICOM data using computed tomography scans.
    • Layered manufacturing with a 3D printer and sterilizable photopolymers produced the custom models.
    • A tactile surgical navigation system was developed utilizing these 3D models.

    Main Results:

    • The 3D models were successfully created and utilized in a tactile surgical navigation system.
    • No infections, toxic effects, or adverse events were observed during the use of the models.
    • The models proved beneficial for preoperative assessment, planning, simulation, and intraoperative guidance.

    Conclusions:

    • Custom 3D bony pelvis models are safe and effective for complex acetabular fracture surgery.
    • This tactile navigation system enhances surgical assessment, planning, and education.
    • The technology shows promise for improving patient care in orthopedic trauma.
