Area of Science:

  • Orthopedic Surgery
  • Biomedical Engineering
  • Medical Technology

Background:

  • Preoperative planning and patient education are crucial for managing hand injuries.
  • Three-dimensional (3D) printing technology offers potential solutions by creating physical replicas from digital data.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To systematically review the clinical applications of 3D printing in hand surgery.
  • To identify how 3D printing facilitates personalized treatment strategies for hand and wrist conditions.

Main Methods:

  • A systematic review adhering to PRISMA guidelines was conducted.
  • Databases searched included Medline, Embase, and CINAHL for studies published between 2013 and January 2025.
  • Eligible studies focused on 3D printing use in diagnosis, surgical intervention, or rehabilitation for hand/wrist injuries.

Main Results:

  • The review analyzed 58 studies involving 751 patients, with the distal radius being the most common anatomical focus.
  • Key applications included preoperative planning (19%), intra-operative assistance (38%), splinting/casting (19%), and prosthetics/reconstruction (12%).
  • Patient education and medical training also utilized 3D printing in a smaller percentage of cases.

Conclusions:

  • 3D printing shows promise in hand surgery for personalized care through enhanced preoperative planning, intra-operative assistance, and patient education.
  • Further research is needed to evaluate its impact on postoperative outcomes, cost-effectiveness, and comparison to current standards of care.
