The Orthopedic clinics of North America·2026

Three-dimensional printing (3DP) enhances orthopaedic surgery by improving planning and outcomes. This technology offers benefits in deformity correction and spinal procedures, with emerging applications in custom implants.

Area of Science:

  • Orthopaedic Surgery
  • Biomedical Engineering
  • Medical Imaging

Background:

  • Three-dimensional printing (3DP) is increasingly utilized in orthopaedics.
  • It aids in surgical planning, education, and intraoperative execution.
  • 3DP offers benefits such as reduced operative time and blood loss.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To review the technical workflow of 3DP in pediatric orthopaedics.
  • To summarize current clinical evidence for 3DP applications.
  • To discuss practical implications of 3DP in pediatric orthopaedic practice.

Main Methods:

  • Review of current literature on 3DP in orthopaedics.
  • Analysis of clinical outcomes associated with 3DP use.
  • Summary of emerging trends and future directions in 3DP technology.
