[Research status and future of in situ three-dimensional printing technique]
Objective:
To review the current research status of in situ three-dimensional (3-D) printing technique and future trends.
Methods:
Recent related literature about in situ 3-D printing technique was summarized, reviewed, and analyzed.
Results:
Based on the clinical need for surgical repair, in situ 3-D printing technique is in the preliminary study, mainly focuses on in situ dermal repair and bone and cartilage repair, and succeeds in experiments, but there are still a lot of problems for clinical application.
Conclusion:
With the development of in situ 3-D printing technique, it will provide patients with real-time and in situ digital design and 3-D printing treatment with a timely and minimally invasive surgical repair process. It will be widely used in the future.
