Clinical Consequences of Unreconstructed Pelvic Defect Caused by Osteosarcoma with Subsequent Progressive Scoliosis in a Pediatric Patient-Case Report. CHILDREN (BASEL, SWITZERLAND) 2024; 11:607. [PMID: 38790602 PMCID: PMC11120253 DOI: 10.3390/children11050607] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 04/16/2024] [Revised: 05/11/2024] [Accepted: 05/14/2024] [Indexed: 05/26/2024]
Abstract
Osteosarcoma is the most common primary malignant bone tumor in children and adolescents. The standard and most effective treatment is wide resection of the tumor combined with neoadjuvant chemotherapy. Adolescent idiopathic scoliosis (AIS) is a genetically determined three-dimensional spinal deformity, which occurs in teenage patients and is mostly progressive. The basic management strategy is surgical treatment when the curve exceeds 50 degrees. However, the indications are different in oncologic patients. The aim of this study was to describe a case of adolescent scoliosis with osteosarcoma of the pelvis. The authors conducted a scoping review using PubMed and Embase to analyze the state of knowledge. The presented paper is the first report of pelvis osteosarcoma coexisting with adolescent idiopathic scoliosis. Treatment for this complex case finished with very good results, with no recurrence observed during the nine-year follow-up.

BMC Musculoskelet Disord 2024; 25:384. [PMID: 38755628 PMCID: PMC11097426 DOI: 10.1186/s12891-024-07509-8] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 12/17/2023] [Accepted: 05/08/2024] [Indexed: 05/18/2024] Open
Abstract
BACKGROUND Customized 3D-printed pelvic implants with a porous structure have revolutionized periacetabular pelvic defect reconstruction after tumor resection, offering improved osteointegration, long-term stability, and anatomical fit. However, the lack of an established classification system hampers implementation and progress. METHODS We formulated a novel classification system based on pelvic defect morphology and 3D-printed hemipelvis endoprostheses. It integrates surgical approach, osteotomy guide plate and prosthesis design, postoperative rehabilitation plans, and perioperative processes. RESULTS Retrospectively analyzing 60 patients (31 males, 29 females), we classified them into Type A (15 patients: Aa = 6, Ab = 9), Type B (27 patients: Ba = 15, Bb = 12), Type C (17 patients). All underwent customized osteotomy guide plate-assisted tumor resection and 3D-printed hemipelvic endoprosthesis reconstruction. Follow-up duration was median 36.5 ± 15.0 months (range, 6 to 74 months). The mean operating time was 430.0 ± 106.7 min, intraoperative blood loss 2018.3 ± 1305.6 ml, transfusion volume 2510.0 ± 1778.1 ml. Complications occurred in 13 patients (21.7%), including poor wound healing (10.0%), deep prosthesis infection (6.7%), hip dislocation (3.3%), screw fracture (1.7%), and interface loosening (1.7%). VAS score improved from 5.5 ± 1.4 to 1.7 ± 1.3, MSTS-93 score from 14.8 ± 2.5 to 23.0 ± 5.6. Implant osseointegration success rate was 98.5% (128/130), with one Type Ba patient experiencing distal prosthesis loosening. CONCLUSION The West China classification may supplement the Enneking and Dunham classification, enhancing interdisciplinary communication and surgical outcomes. However, further validation and wider adoption are required to confirm clinical effectiveness.

Biomechanical and clinical outcomes of 3D-printed versus modular hemipelvic prostheses for limb-salvage reconstruction following periacetabular tumor resection: a mid-term retrospective cohort study. J Orthop Surg Res 2024; 19:258. [PMID: 38654343 DOI: 10.1186/s13018-024-04697-w] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 02/14/2024] [Accepted: 03/22/2024] [Indexed: 04/25/2024] Open
Abstract
BACKGROUND Debates persist over optimal pelvic girdle reconstruction after acetabular tumor resection, with surgeons grappling between modular and 3D-printed hemipelvic endoprostheses. We hypothesize superior outcomes with 3D-printed versions, yet scarce comparative research exists. This study fills the gap, examining biomechanics and clinical results retrospectively. METHODS From February 2017 to June 2021, we retrospectively assessed 32 patients undergoing en bloc resection for malignant periacetabular tumors at a single institution. PRIMARY OUTCOME limb function. SECONDARY OUTCOMES implant precision, hip joint rotation center restoration, prosthesis-bone osteointegration, and complications. Biomechanical characteristics were evaluated through finite element analysis on pelvic defect models. RESULTS In the 3D-printed group, stress distribution mirrored a normal pelvis, contrasting the modular group with elevated overall stress, unstable transitions, and higher stress peaks. The 3D-printed group exhibited superior functional scores (MSTS: 24.3 ± 1.8 vs. 21.8 ± 2.0, p < 0.05; HHS: 79.8 ± 5.2 vs. 75.3 ± 3.5, p < 0.05). Prosthetic-bone interface osteointegration, measured by T-SMART, favored 3D-printed prostheses, but surgery time (426.2 ± 67.0 vs. 301.7 ± 48.6 min, p < 0.05) and blood loss (2121.1 ± 686.8 vs. 1600.0 ± 505.0 ml, p < 0.05) were higher. CONCLUSIONS The 3D-printed hemipelvic endoprosthesis offers precise pelvic ring defect matching, superior stress transmission, and function compared to modular endoprostheses. However, complexity, fabrication expertise, and challenging surgical implantation result in prolonged operation times and increased blood loss. A nuanced consideration of functional outcomes, complexity, and patient conditions is crucial for informed treatment decisions. LEVEL OF EVIDENCE Level III, therapeutic study (Retrospective comparative study).

[PMID: 38561755 PMCID: PMC10983619 DOI: 10.1186/s13018-024-04672-5] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 01/04/2024] [Accepted: 03/13/2024] [Indexed: 04/04/2024] Open
Abstract
OBJECTIVE This study aims to biomimetic design a new 3D-printed lattice hemipelvis prosthesis and evaluate its clinical efficiency for pelvic reconstruction following tumor resection, focusing on feasibility, osseointegration, and patient outcomes. METHODS From May 2020 to October 2021, twelve patients with pelvic tumors underwent tumor resection and subsequently received 3D-printed lattice hemipelvis prostheses for pelvic reconstruction. The prosthesis was strategically incorporated with lattice structures and solid to optimize mechanical performance and osseointegration. The pore size and porosity were analyzed. Patient outcomes were assessed through a combination of clinical and radiological evaluations. RESULTS Multiple pore sizes were observed in irregular porous structures, with a wide distribution range (approximately 300-900 μm). The average follow-up of 34.7 months, ranging 26 from to 43 months. One patient with Ewing sarcoma died of pulmonary metastasis 33 months after surgery while others were alive at the last follow-up. Postoperative radiographs showed that the prosthesis's position was consistent with the preoperative planning. T-SMART images showed that the host bone was in close and tight contact with the prosthesis with no gaps at the interface. The average MSTS score was 21 at the last follow-up, ranging from 18 to 24. There was no complication requiring revision surgery or removal of the 3D-printed hemipelvis prosthesis, such as infection, screw breakage, and prosthesis loosening. CONCLUSION The newly designed 3D-printed lattice hemipelvis prosthesis created multiple pore sizes with a wide distribution range and resulted in good osteointegration and favorable limb function.

Abstract
The treatment of critical-sized bone defects has long been a major problem for surgeons. In this study, an intramedullary nail shaped three-dimensional (3D)-printed porous titanium implant that is capable of releasing strontium ions was developed through a simple and cost-effective surface modification technique. The feasibility of this implant as a stand-alone solution was evaluated using a rabbit's segmental diaphyseal as a defect model. The strontium-loaded implant exhibited a favorable environment for cell adhesion, and mechanical properties that were commensurate with those of a rabbit's cortical bone. Radiographic, biomechanical, and histological analyses revealed a significantly higher amount of bone ingrowth and superior bone-bonding strength in the strontium-loaded implant when compared to an untreated porous titanium implant. Furthermore, one-year histological observations revealed that the strontium-loaded implant preserved the native-like diaphyseal bone structure without failure. These findings suggest that strontium-releasing 3D-printed titanium implants have the clinical potential to induce the early and efficient repair of critical-sized, load-bearing bone defects.

Abstract
Background The use of 3D-printed pelvic prosthesis for postoperative reconstruction after pelvic tumor resection has become one of the primary reconstruction methods the incidence of complications related to postoperative prosthesis reconstruction is high. Drawing on the failure of the type of bone tumor reconstruction in Henderson,the occurrence of postoperative complications was explored to take advantage of the design improvement of the 3D-printed prosthesis of subsequent pelvic tumors. Methods The data for patients who underwent 3D-printed pelvic tumor prostheses in the Department of Bone and Soft Tissue Surgery at the Affiliated Cancer Hospital of Guangxi Medical University from January 2019 to October 2022 were collected and analyzed. Results The median follow-up time for all patients was 15.99 months (1.33-31.16 months). At the most recent follow-up,all patients were alive,with an average Musculoskeletal Tumor Society (MSTS) score of 21.46 (17 to 26 points). Local recurrence occurred in two cases (15.3%), metastasis in four cases (30.7%), and complications in 10 cases (76.9%). Early complications after surgery were primarily local wound fissure, deep tissue infection, and postoperative neuralgia. Later complications included loose dissolution of internal fixation, postoperative prosthetic dislocation, and postoperative gluteal middle muscle gait. Conclusion 3D printing personalized design pelvic tumor prosthesis is an effective way to reconstruct, and designing pelvic 3D printed tumor prosthesis with the help of Henderson's bone tumor reconstruction failure concept may help bone tumor surgeons develop better pelvic tumor prosthesis.

Abstract
Resection of pelvic bone tumors and the subsequent reconstruction of the pelvic girdle pose challenges due to complex anatomy, load-bearing demands, and significant defects. 3D-printed implants have revolutionized pelvic girdle reconstruction by offering customized solutions, porous surface structures for precise resection with custom guides, and improved integration. Many tertiary medical centers have adopted 3Dprinted hemipelvic endoprostheses, leading to enhanced outcomes. However, most studies are limited to single centers, with a small number of cases and short follow-up periods. Additionally, the design of these implants often relies heavily on individual experience, resulting in a lack of uniformity and significant variation. To provide a comprehensive assessment of this technology, we conducted an analysis of existing literature, encompassing tumor resection classification, various types of prosthesis design, reconstruction concepts, and post-reconstruction functional outcomes.

Abstract
PURPOSE Metastatic disease of the pelvis is frequently associated with severe pain and impaired ambulatory function. Depending on the patient's characteristics, primary tumor, and metastatic pelvic disease, the treatment choice may be varied. This study aims to report on the current management options of metastatic pelvic disease. METHODS We comprehensively researched multiple databases and evaluated essential studies about current concepts of managing a metastatic bone disease of the pelvis, focusing on specific indications as well as on the result of treatment. RESULTS Pelvic metastases not in the periacetabular region can be managed with modification of weight-bearing, analgesics, bisphosphonates, chemotherapy and/or radiotherapy. Minimally invasive approaches include radiofrequency ablation, cryoablation, embolization, percutaneous osteoplasty, and percutaneous screw placement. Pathological or impending periacetabular fracture, excessive periacetabular bone defect, radioresistant tumor, and persistent debilitating pain despite non-surgical treatment and/or minimally invasive procedures can be managed with different surgical techniques. Overall, treatment can be divided into nonoperative, minimally invasive, and operative based on specific indications, the expectations of the patient and the lesion. CONCLUSION Different treatment modalities exist to manage metastatic pelvic bone disease. Decision-making for the most appropriate treatment should be made with a multidisciplinary approach based on a case-by-case basis.

Abstract
Endoprosthetic reconstruction of the pelvic bone using 3D-printed, custom-made implants has delivered early load-bearing ability and good functional outcomes in the short term to individuals with pelvic sarcoma. However, excessive stress-shielding and subsequent resorption of peri‑prosthetic bone can imperil the long-term stability of such implants. To evaluate the stress-shielding performance of pelvic prostheses, we developed a sequential modeling scheme using subject-specific finite element models of the pelvic bone-implant complex and personalized neuromusculoskeletal models for pre- and post-surgery walking. A new topology optimization approach is introduced for the stress-shielding resistant (SSR) design of custom pelvic prostheses, which uses 3D-printable porous lattice structures. The SSR optimization was applied to a typical pelvic prosthesis to reconstruct a type II+III bone resection. The stress-shielding performance of the optimized implant based on the SSR approach was compared against the conventional optimization. The volume of the peri‑prosthetic bone predicted to undergo resorption post-surgery decreased from 44 to 18%. This improvement in stress-shielding resistance was achieved without compromising the structural integrity of the prosthesis. The SSR design approach has the potential to improve the long-term stability of custom-made pelvic prostheses.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Reconstructive procedure following resection of large pelvic tumours around the hip joint remains a complex challenge. METHODS This study presents a retrospective case series of patients presenting with benign or malignant pelvic tumour for which an internal hemipelvectomy including the hip joint and subsequent reconstruction with a custom designed 3-dimensional printed titanium pelvic implant (3DPPI) has been performed between August 2013 and January 2018. RESULTS 15 consecutive patients with a median age of 33.9 years (IQR 26.4-72.2) and a median BMI of 20.7 kg/m2 (IQR 19.0-33.3) were reviewed after median follow-up of 33.8 months (IQR 24.0-78.1). The majority of patients presented with a malignant tumour as their principal diagnosis (n = 13, 86.7%). The median surgical time was 5.5 hours (IQR 4.5-8.5) and median peri-operative blood loss was 5000 ml (IQR 2000-10000). The median MSTS score at follow-up was 63.3% (IQR 51.7-86.7%). The median NRS in rest was 0.0 (IQR 0.0-5.0), the median NRS during activity was 2.0 (IQR 0.5-7.0) and the median HOOS-PS was 76.6% (IQR 67.9-91.0). 4 patients had implant-specific complications (n = 4, 26.6%); 1 hip dislocation (Henderson type 1a), 3 structural complications (type 3a), 1 deep infection (type 4a) and 1 local tumour recurrence (type 5b). At follow-up, 4 out of 15 implants were classified as a failure, resulting in an implant survival rate of 73.3%. CONCLUSIONS Acceptable peri-operative outcomes, functional results, complication rates and short-term implant survival can be achieved in a cohort of complex patients undergoing 3DPPI reconstruction after hemipelvectomy including the acetabulum.

[PMID: 37675040 PMCID: PMC10480061 DOI: 10.1016/j.jot.2023.08.004] [Citation(s) in RCA: 1] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 05/21/2023] [Revised: 07/28/2023] [Accepted: 08/02/2023] [Indexed: 09/08/2023] Open
Abstract
Background Currently, metal implants are widely used in orthopedic surgeries, including fracture fixation, spinal fusion, joint replacement, and bone tumor defect repair. However, conventional implants are difficult to be customized according to the recipient's skeletal anatomy and defect characteristics, leading to difficulties in meeting the individual needs of patients. Additive manufacturing (AM) or three-dimensional (3D) printing technology, an advanced digital fabrication technique capable of producing components with complex and precise structures, offers opportunities for personalization. Methods We systematically reviewed the literature on 3D printing orthopedic metal implants over the past 10 years. Relevant animal, cellular, and clinical studies were searched in PubMed and Web of Science. In this paper, we introduce the 3D printing method and the characteristics of biometals and summarize the properties of 3D printing metal implants and their clinical applications in orthopedic surgery. On this basis, we discuss potential possibilities for further generalization and improvement. Results 3D printing technology has facilitated the use of metal implants in different orthopedic procedures. By combining medical images from techniques such as CT and MRI, 3D printing technology allows the precise fabrication of complex metal implants based on the anatomy of the injured tissue. Such patient-specific implants not only reduce excessive mechanical strength and eliminate stress-shielding effects, but also improve biocompatibility and functionality, increase cell and nutrient permeability, and promote angiogenesis and bone growth. In addition, 3D printing technology has the advantages of low cost, fast manufacturing cycles, and high reproducibility, which can shorten patients' surgery and hospitalization time. Many clinical trials have been conducted using customized implants. However, the use of modeling software, the operation of printing equipment, the high demand for metal implant materials, and the lack of guidance from relevant laws and regulations have limited its further application. Conclusions There are advantages of 3D printing metal implants in orthopedic applications such as personalization, promotion of osseointegration, short production cycle, and high material utilization. With the continuous learning of modeling software by surgeons, the improvement of 3D printing technology, the development of metal materials that better meet clinical needs, and the improvement of laws and regulations, 3D printing metal implants can be applied to more orthopedic surgeries. The translational potential of this paper Precision, intelligence, and personalization are the future direction of orthopedics. It is reasonable to believe that 3D printing technology will be more deeply integrated with artificial intelligence, 4D printing, and big data to play a greater role in orthopedic metal implants and eventually become an important part of the digital economy. We aim to summarize the latest developments in 3D printing metal implants for engineers and surgeons to design implants that more closely mimic the morphology and function of native bone.

Abstract
Background: Current reconstruction methods of the pelvic ring after extensive resection of tumors involving the sacroiliac joint have a high incidence of failure. We aimed to study the effect of 3D-printed patient-specific implant reconstruction to show that this method is stable and has a low risk of failure. Methods: Between February 2017 and November 2021, six patients with bone tumors involving the sacroiliac joint (Enneking I + IV) who received 3D-printed patient-specific implants for pelvic reconstructive surgery were retrospectively analyzed. Two female and four male patients with a mean age of 41.83 years (range 25-65 years) were included. Two were osteosarcomas, two chondrosarcomas, one malignant fibrous histiocytoma, and one giant cell tumor of bone. For each patient, preoperative osteotomy guides were designed to ensure accurate tumor resection and individualized prostheses were designed to ensure a perfect fit of the bone defect. General, oncologic, and functional outcomes, implant status, and complications were retrospectively analyzed. The Visual Analog Scale (VAS) was used to assess pain and the Musculoskeletal Tumor Society (MSTS) score was used to assess hip function. Osseointegration was assessed by CT. Results: According to the preoperative design, complete resection of the entire tumor and reconstruction with a custom 3D-printed sacroiliac joint implant was completed without perioperative severe complications or deaths. Relatively satisfactory surgical margins were achieved. The mean operative time and intraoperative blood loss were 495 min (420-600 min) and 2533.33 mL (range, 1,200-3,500 mL), respectively. The mean follow-up was 49.83 months (range, 18-75 months). At the last follow-up, all four patients were disease-free, and the two patients who developed lung metastases were alive with tumors. All patients could walk unassisted. The mean VAS was 1.33 (range, 0-2). The mean MSTS score was 25.33 (range, 24-27). CT showed complete osseointegration of the implant to the ilium and sacrum. Conclusion: The 3D-printed custom prosthesis can effectively reconstruct pelvic stability after total sacroiliac joint resection with satisfactory clinical results.

Abstract
With the ability to produce components with complex and precise structures, additive manufacturing or 3D printing techniques are now widely applied in both industry and consumer markets. The emergence of tissue engineering has facilitated the application of 3D printing in the field of biomedical implants. 3D printed implants with proper structural design can not only eliminate the stress shielding effect but also improve in vivo biocompatibility and functionality. By combining medical images derived from technologies such as X-ray scanning, CT, MRI, or ultrasonic scanning, 3D printing can be used to create patient-specific implants with almost the same anatomical structures as the injured tissues. Numerous clinical trials have already been conducted with customized implants. However, the limited availability of raw materials for printing and a lack of guidance from related regulations or laws may impede the development of 3D printing in medical implants. This review provides information on the current state of 3D printing techniques in orthopedic implant applications. The current challenges and future perspectives are also included.

Abstract
Introduction Caudal maxillectomies are challenging procedures for most veterinary surgeons. Custom guides may allow the procedure to become more accessible. Methods A cadaveric study was performed to evaluate the accuracy and efficiency of stereolithography guided (3D-printed) caudal maxillectomy. Mean absolute linear deviation from planned to performed cuts and mean procedure duration were compared pairwise between three study groups, with 10 canine cadaver head sides per group: 3D-printed guided caudal maxillectomy performed by an experienced surgeon (ESG) and a novice surgery resident (NSG), and freehand procedure performed by an experienced surgeon (ESF). Results Accuracy was systematically higher for ESG versus ESF, and statistically significant for 4 of 5 osteotomies (p < 0.05). There was no statistical difference in accuracy between ESG and NSG. The highest absolute mean linear deviation for ESG was <2 mm and >5 mm for ESF. Procedure duration was statistically significantly longer for ESG than ESF (p < 0.001), and for NSG than ESG (p < 0.001). Discussion Surgical accuracy of canine caudal maxillectomy was improved with the use of our novel custom cutting guide, despite a longer duration procedure. Improved accuracy obtained with the use of the custom cutting guide could prove beneficial in achieving complete oncologic margins. The time increase might be acceptable if hemorrhage can be adequately controlled in vivo. Further development in custom guides may improve the overall efficacy of the procedure.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION While 3D printing of bone models for preoperative planning or customized surgical templating has been successfully implemented, the use of patient-specific additively manufactured (AM) implants is a newer application not yet well established. To fully evaluate the advantages and shortcomings of such implants, their follow-up results need to be evaluated. AREA COVERED This systematic review provides a survey of the reported follow-ups on AM implants used for oncologic reconstruction, total hip arthroplasty both primary and revision, acetabular fracture, and sacrum defects. EXPERT OPINION The review shows that Titanium alloy (Ti4AL6V) is the most common type of material system used due to its excellent biomechanical properties. Electron beam melting (EBM) is the predominant AM process for manufacturing implants. In almost all cases, porosity at the contact surface is implemented through the design of lattice or porous structures to enhance osseointegration. The follow-up evaluations show promising results, with only a small number of patients suffering from aseptic loosening, wear, or malalignment. The longest reported follow-up length was 120 months for acetabular cages and 96 months for acetabular cups. The AM implants have proven to serve as an excellent option to restore premorbid skeletal anatomy of the pelvis.

Abstract
The purpose of this study is to explore the effect of using 3D printed pelvic prosthesis to reconstruct bone defect after pelvic tumor resection. From June 2018 to October 2021, a total of 10 patients with pelvic tumors underwent pelvic tumor resection and 3D printed customized hemipelvic prosthesis reconstruction in our hospital. Enneking pelvic surgery subdivision method was used to determine the degree of tumor invasion and the site of prosthesis reconstruction. 2 cases in Zone I, 2 cases in Zone II, 3 cases in Zone I + II, 2 cases in Zone II + III and 1 case in Zone I + II + III. Patients had preoperative VAS scores of 6.5 ± 1.3, postoperative VAS scores of 2.2 ± 0.9, preoperative MSTS-93 scores of 9.4 ± 5.3 and postoperative 19.4 ± 5.9(p < 0.05), all patients had improvement in pain after surgery; Postoperative complications included joint dislocation in 2 cases, myasthenia caused by Guillain-Barre syndrome in 1 case, delayed wound healing in 3 cases and wound infection in 2 cases. Postoperative wound-related complications and dislocations were associated with the extent of the tumor. Patients with tumor invasion of the iliopsoas and gluteus medius muscles had higher complication rates and worse postoperative MSTS scores (p < 0.05). The patients were followed up for 8 ∼ 28 months. During the follow-up period, 1 case recurred, 4 cases metastasized and 1 case died. All pelvic CTs reviewed 3-6 months after surgery showed good alignment between the 3D printed prosthesis and the bone contact, and tomography showed the growth of trabecular structures into the bone. Overall pain scores decreased and functional scores improved in patients after 3D printed prosthesis replacement for pelvic tumor resection. Long-term bone ingrowth could be seen on the prosthesis-bone contact surface with good stability.

Abstract
Background and Objectives: Following the most recent software and 3D printing developments, the use of personalized 3D printed orthopedic implants for treatment of complicated surgical cases has gained more popularity. Today, orthopedic problems that cannot be solved with standard implants may be effectively addressed using personalized prostheses. The aim of this study is to present the designing, modeling and production stages of four different personalized 3D printed prostheses and their application in clinical cases of patients who underwent treatment in various anatomical locations with a precisely specified indication for implantation. Materials and Methods: Based on computed tomography scanning, personalized 3D printed prostheses were designed, produced and used in four patients within a period of three to five days after injury or admission. Results: Early term follow-ups demonstrated good to excellent results. Conclusions: Personalized 3D printed prostheses offer an opportunity for a treatment of choice and provide good anatomical and functional results, shortened surgical time, less complications, and high satisfaction in patients with appropriate indications. The method should be considered primarily for patients with large bone defects, or such indicated for resection. Personalized 3D printed prostheses have the potential to become more common and beneficial in the future.

Acta Biomater 2023; 156:125-145. [PMID: 35675890 DOI: 10.1016/j.actbio.2022.06.002] [Citation(s) in RCA: 7] [Impact Index Per Article: 7.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 02/15/2022] [Revised: 05/16/2022] [Accepted: 06/01/2022] [Indexed: 01/18/2023]
Abstract
The last decade has witnessed rapid advancements in manufacturing technologies for biomedical implants. Additive manufacturing (or 3D printing) has broken down major barriers in the way of producing complex 3D geometries. Electron beam melting (EBM) is one such 3D printing process applicable to metals and alloys. EBM offers build rates up to two orders of magnitude greater than comparable laser-based technologies and a high vacuum environment to prevent accumulation of trace elements. These features make EBM particularly advantageous for materials susceptible to spontaneous oxidation and nitrogen pick-up when exposed to air (e.g., titanium and titanium-based alloys). For skeletal reconstruction(s), anatomical mimickry and integrated macro-porous architecture to facilitate bone ingrowth are undoubtedly the key features of EBM manufactured implants. Using finite element modelling of physiological loading conditions, the design of a prosthesis may be further personalised. This review looks at the many unique clinical applications of EBM in skeletal repair and the ground-breaking innovations in prosthetic rehabilitation. From a simple acetabular cup to the fifth toe, from the hand-wrist complex to the shoulder, and from vertebral replacement to cranio-maxillofacial reconstruction, EBM has experienced it all. While sternocostal reconstructions might be rare, the repair of long bones using EBM manufactured implants is becoming exceedingly frequent. Despite the various merits, several challenges remain yet untackled. Nevertheless, with the capability to produce osseointegrating implants of any conceivable shape/size, and permissive of bone ingrowth and functional loading, EBM can pave the way for numerous fascinating and novel applications in skeletal repair, regeneration, and rehabilitation. STATEMENT OF SIGNIFICANCE: Electron beam melting (EBM) offers unparalleled possibilities in producing contaminant-free, complex and intricate geometries from alloys of biomedical interest, including Ti6Al4V and CoCr. We review the diverse range of clinical applications of EBM in skeletal repair, both as mass produced off-the-shelf implants and personalised, patient-specific prostheses. From replacing large volumes of disease-affected bone to complex, multi-material reconstructions, almost every part of the human skeleton has been replaced with an EBM manufactured analog to achieve macroscopic anatomical-mimickry. However, various questions regarding long-term performance of patient-specific implants remain unaddressed. Directions for further development include designing personalised implants and prostheses based on simulated loading conditions and accounting for trabecular bone microstructure with respect to physiological factors such as patient's age and disease status.

Reconstruction with 3D-printed prostheses after type I + II + III internal hemipelvectomy: Finite element analysis and preliminary outcomes. Front Bioeng Biotechnol 2023; 10:1036882. [PMID: 36698627 PMCID: PMC9868148 DOI: 10.3389/fbioe.2022.1036882] [Citation(s) in RCA: 3] [Impact Index Per Article: 3.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 09/05/2022] [Accepted: 12/20/2022] [Indexed: 01/10/2023] Open
Abstract
Background: Prosthetic reconstruction after type I + II+ III internal hemipelvectomy remains challenging due to the lack of osseointegration and presence of giant shear force at the sacroiliac joint. The purpose of this study was to evaluate the biomechanical properties of the novel 3D-printed, custom-made prosthesis with pedicle screw-rod system and sacral tray using finite element analysis. Methods: Four models that included one intact pelvis were established for validation. Forces of 500 N and 2,000 N were applied, respectively, to simulate static bipedal standing and the most loaded condition during a gait cycle. Biomechanical analysis was performed, and the results were compared; the preliminary outcomes of four patients were recorded. Results: For the reconstructed hemipelvis, stress was mainly concentrated on the sacral screws, bone-prosthesis interface, and upper endplate of the L5 vertebra. The optimization of the design with the sacral tray structure could decrease the peak stress of the sacral screws by 18.6%, while the maximal stress of the prosthesis increased by 60.7%. The addition of the lumbosacral pedicle-rod system further alleviated stress of the sacral screws and prosthesis by 30.2% and 19.4%, respectively. The site of peak stress was contemporaneously transferred to the connecting rods within an elastic range. In the retrospective clinical study, four patients who had undergone prosthetic reconstruction were included. During a follow-up of 16.6 ± 7.5 months, the walking ability was found preserved in all patients who are still alive and no prosthesis-related complications had occurred except for one hip dislocation. The Musculoskeletal Tumor Society (MSTS) score was found to be 19.5 ± 2.9. Conclusion: The novel reconstructive system yielded favorable biomechanical characteristics and demonstrated promising preliminary outcomes. The method can be used as a reference for reconstruction after type I + II + III hemipelvectomy.

Early radiographic osseointegration of a novel highly porous 3D-printed titanium collar for megaprostheses compared to a previous generation smooth HA-coated collar. Arch Orthop Trauma Surg 2023:10.1007/s00402-022-04760-3. [PMID: 36598605 PMCID: PMC10374805 DOI: 10.1007/s00402-022-04760-3] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 08/02/2022] [Accepted: 12/28/2022] [Indexed: 01/05/2023]
Abstract
PURPOSE Extracortical osseointegration at the collar-bone interface of megaprostheses is associated with improved implant stability, lower rates of stem fracture and loosening. The use of hydroxy-apatite (HA-) coated collars showed mixed results in previously published reports. A novel collar system has recently become available utilizing additive manufacturing technology to create a highly porous titanium collar with a calcium-phosphate coated surface. The aim of this study was to evaluate our early experience with this novel collar and compare it to the previously used HA-coated model. METHODS Twenty patients who underwent megaprostheses implantation utilizing the novel collar system were case matched to 20 patients who had previously undergone a HA-coated collar. A minimum radiological follow-up of three months was available in all included patients. Osseointegration was evaluated using postoperative plain radiographs in two planes based on a previously published semi-quantitative score. RESULTS Compared to the HA-coated collar the use of the novel highly porous collar was associated with a higher proportion of cases demonstrating osseointegration at the bone-collar interface (80% vs. 65%). Application of the highly porous collar led to a significantly shortened time to reach the final ongrowth score (173 ± 89 days vs. 299 ± 165 days, p < 0.05). At one year follow-up, 90% of the novel collars had reached their final osseoingration grade compared to 50% in the HA-coated collar group (p < 0.001). Radiological osseointegration was seen in 71% for highly porous collars where the indication was revision arthroplasty, compared to 27% in reported in the literature. CONCLUSION These results indicate more reliable and accelerated osseointegration at the bone-collar interface of a novel highly porous collar system compared to a previously used HA-coated collar. Further studies are warranted to confirm these findings.

Abstract
With the development of material science, additive manufacturing technology has been employed for pelvic surgery, addressing the challenges, such as the complex structure of the pelvis, difficulty in exposing the operative area, and poor visibility, of the traditional pelvic surgery. However, only limited studies have been done to review the research hotspots and trends of the additive manufacturing technology applied for pelvic surgery. In this study, we comprehensively analyzed the literatures related to additive manufacturing technology in pelvic surgery by a bibliometrics analysis and found that additive manufacturing technology is widely used in several aspects of preoperative diagnosis, preoperative planning, intraoperative navigation, and personalized implants for pelvic surgery. Firstly, we searched and screened 856 publications from the Web of Science Core Collection (WoSCC) with TS = (3D printing OR 3D printed OR three-dimensional printing OR additive manufacturing OR rapid prototyping) AND TS = (pelvis OR sacrum OR ilium OR pubis OR ischium OR ischia OR acetabulum OR hip) as the search strategy. Then, 565 of these were eliminated by evaluating the titles and abstracts, leaving 291 pieces of research literature whose relevant information was visually displayed using VOSviewer. Furthermore, 10 publications with high citations were selected by reading all publications extensively for carefully evaluating their Titles, Purposes, Results, Limitations, Journal of affiliation, and Citations. Our results of bibliometric analysis demonstrated that additive manufacturing technology is increasingly applied in pelvic surgery, providing readers with a valuable reference for fully comprehending the research hotspots and trends in the application of additive manufacturing technology in pelvic surgery.

Less is better than more with resection of periacetabular tumors - A retrospective 16 years study and literature review. Front Surg 2022; 9:1036640. [PMID: 36570805 PMCID: PMC9772449 DOI: 10.3389/fsurg.2022.1036640] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 09/04/2022] [Accepted: 11/21/2022] [Indexed: 12/13/2022] Open
Abstract
Introduction Wide resections of periacetabular tumors create a sizeable bony defect that inevitably results in severe loss of function. Reconstruction of such defects usually requires using large metal implants, a feature associated with considerable surgery extension and complications. The aim of this study is to report resection with no reconstruction of the bony defect. In this retrospective study, we reviewed a consecutive series of 16 patients diagnosed with malignant periacetabular tumors and underwent en-bloc resection without reconstructing their remaining bone defect. Methods Records were reviewed of 16 consecutive patients diagnosed with malignant periacetabular tumors and underwent en-bloc resection without reconstructing their remaining bony defect. Measurements included: the duration of surgery, blood loss, hemoglobin levels and the need for blood transfusions, data on other hospitalization characteristics, and intraoperative and postoperative complications. Results Sixteen patients with malignant periacetabular bone tumors and extensive bone destruction underwent wide periacetabular tumor resection with a mean follow-up of 75 months and a mean age of 53 years. The average HOOS score was 46 (range: 20 to 76), and the mean MSTS score was 13% (range: 0 to 15). The mean operative time was 4.1 h, and the mean blood loss was 1200 ml. At their most recent follow-up, patients had a mean shortening of their operated extremity of 4.8 cm, and all could ambulate with assisting devices. Conclusion Wide resection of periacetabular tumors without reconstruction provides acceptable levels of function and was associated with shorter surgical time, less blood loss and fewer postoperative complications compared to resection with reconstruction. Therefore, this approach may be considered a viable surgical option in patients with an extensive malignant periacetabular. Level III Retrospective study.

Abstract
Background and purpose Various operative methods are used for reconstructing pelvic girdle after resection of primary malignant periacetabular tumor has been reported. The objective of this study was to evaluate the accuracy, effectiveness, and safety of customized three dimensional-printed prosthesis (3DP) in the reconstruction of bone defects compared with conventional reconstruction using the screw-rod-cage system. Methods A retrospective case–control analysis of 40 patients who underwent pelvic tumor resection and reconstruction with a customized 3D-printed prosthesis (3DP), or screw-rod-cage system (SRCS) between January 2010 and December 2019 was performed. The minimum follow-up time for patients alive was 2 years. Blood loss, operation time, complications, surgical margin, local recurrence, distant metastases, status at time of latest follow-up, MSTS-93 score, Harris hip score, and postoperative radiographic parameters were recorded. Moreover, overall survival, tumor-free survival, and prosthesis survival rates in both groups were compared. Results Customized 3DP reconstruction was performed in 15 patients, and SRCS reconstruction was done in 25 patients. The group of patients treated with customized 3DP reconstruction had significantly shorter operation time (323.7 ± 83.7 vs. 393.6 ± 98.8 min; P = 0.028) and more precise (all P < 0.05) radiographic reconstruction parameters than patients in the SRCS group. Fewer complications (P = 0.026), better MSTS score (P = 0.030), and better Harris hip score (P = 0.016) were achieved in the 3DP group. Furthermore, the survival rate of prosthesis was also significantly better in the 3DP group (P = 0.039). However, blood loss, surgical margin, local recurrence, distant metastases, and status at time of latest follow-up had no significant difference between two groups. Conclusion Compared with the screw-rod-cage system reconstruction, the customized 3D-printed prosthesis reconstruction is equally safe and effective, but it is more accurate and time-saving and is associated with fewer complications.

Abstract
Three-dimensional (3D) additive manufacturing has recently been used in various medical fields. Among them, orthopedic oncology is one that utilizes it most actively. Bone and tumor modeling for surgical planning, personalized surgical instrument fabrication, and implant fabrication are typical applications. The 3D-printed metal implants using titanium alloy powder have created a revolutionary change in bone reconstruction that can be customized to all body areas; however, bioprinting remains experimental and under active study. This review explores the practical applications of 3D printing in orthopedic oncology and presents a representative case. The 3D-printed implant can replace the conventional tumor prosthesis and auto/allobone graft, thereby personalizing bone reconstruction. Biologic bone reconstruction using biodegradable or bioprinted materials beyond metal may be possible in the future.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Anatomical custom-made prostheses make it possible to reconstruct complicated bone defects following excision of bone tumors, thanks to 3D-printed technology. To date, clinical measures have been used to report clinical-functional outcome and provide evidence for the effectiveness of this new surgical approach. However, there are no studies that quantified the achievable recovery during common activities by using instrumental clinical-functional evaluation in these patients. RESEARCH QUESTION What is the motor performance, functional outcome and quality of life in patients with custom-made 3D-printed pelvic prostheses following bone tumor? METHODS To analyze motor performance, six patients performed motion analysis during five motor activities at follow-up of 32 ± 18 months. Joint angles, ground reaction forces and joint moments of the operated and contralateral limbs were compared. On-off activity of lower-limb muscles were calculated from electromyography and compared to a healthy matched population. To analyze functional outcome and quality of life, differences in measured hip abductor strength between limbs were evaluated, as well as clinical-functional scores (Harris Hip Score, Barthel Index, Musculoskeletal Tumor Society score), and quality of life (SF-36 health survey). RESULTS We found only slight differences in joint kinematics when comparing operated and contralateral limb. The activity of gluteal muscles was normal, while hamstrings showed out-of-phase activities. Ground reaction forces and hip moments showed asymmetries between limbs, particularly in more demanding motor activities. We found a mean difference in hip abductor strength of 48 ± 82 N between limbs, good clinical-functional scores, and quality of life scores within normative. SIGNIFICANCE Our study showed optimal long-term results in functional recovery, mainly achieved through recovery of the gluteal function, although minor impairments were found, which may be considered for future improvement of this innovative surgery. The effect of a more loaded contralateral limb on internal loads and long-term performance of the implant remains unknown and deserves further investigation.

Computer-Aided Design and 3D Printing of Hemipelvic Endoprosthesis for Personalized Limb-Salvage Reconstruction after Periacetabular Tumor Resection. Bioengineering (Basel) 2022; 9:bioengineering9080400. [PMID: 36004925 PMCID: PMC9405276 DOI: 10.3390/bioengineering9080400] [Citation(s) in RCA: 6] [Impact Index Per Article: 3.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 07/22/2022] [Revised: 08/14/2022] [Accepted: 08/16/2022] [Indexed: 12/31/2022] Open
Abstract
3D-printed hemipelvic endoprosthesis is an emerging solution for personalized limb-salvage reconstruction after periacetabular tumor resection. Further clinical studies are still required to report its surgical characteristics, outcomes, benefits and drawbacks. Sixteen consecutive patients underwent periacetabular tumor wide resection and pelvic reconstruction with a 3D-printed hemipelvic endoprosthesis from 2018 to 2021. The surgical characteristics and outcomes are described. The mean follow-up duration was 17.75 months (range, 6 to 46 months). Five patients underwent surgery for type I + II resection and reconstruction, seven for type II + III resection and reconstruction, three for type II resection and reconstruction, and one for type I + II + IV resection and reconstruction. The incidence of postoperative complication was 12.5% (2/16) for deep venous thrombosis (DVT), 12.5% (2/16) for pneumonia, and 12.5% (2/16) for would deep or superficial infection. During follow-up, two patients (12.5%) suffered hip dislocation and underwent revision surgery. CT demonstrated an obvious prosthetic porous structure–bone fusion after follow-up of at least 6 months. At the final follow-up, 12 lived with no evidence of disease while four lived with disease; no patients experienced pain; and 15 had independent ambulation, with a mean Musculoskeletal Tumor Society (MSTS) score of 85.8% (range, 26.7% to 100%). 3D-printed hemipelvic endoprosthesis facilitates wide resection of periacetabular tumor and limb-salvage reconstruction, thus resulting in good oncological and functional outcomes. The custom-made nature is able to well mimic the skeletal anatomy and microstructure and promote osseointegration. Perioperative complications and rehabilitation exercise still need to be stressed for this engineering technology-assisted major orthopedic surgery.

Abstract
Background The aim of the study was to investigate the feasibility and preliminary efficacy of tantalum components utility in the reconstruction of acetabular defects following periacetabular oncologic resection of primary malignancies. Methods We prospectively collected a consecutive of 15 cases that were treated with tantalum components for acetabular reconstruction after periacetabular oncologic resection from January 2018 to December 2018. The cohort included 8 male and 7 female patients, with a mean age of 47.6 years (range, 33 to 67 years). Pathology types: chondrosarcoma (n = 9), malignant bone giant cell tumor (n = 3) and osteosarcoma (n = 3). Clinical outcomes, functional and radiographic results were recorded in detail for analysis. Results Patients received planned oncologic resection and tantalum components reconstruction without casualty; they were followed up with a mean of 39.7 months (35–45 months). The mean operation time was 4.0 h (3.0–6.0 h), and the mean blood loss was 1260 ml (800–2200 ml). Functional outcomes were assessed by MSTS-93 scale, with an average of 21.8 (12.0–26.0 scores), among which 3 cases were excellent, 11 were good and 1 was fair. The mean Harris Hip Score was 79.1scores (46.0–92.0 scores) at 1-year follow-up postoperatively. 3(3/15, 20.0%) cases experienced postoperative complications: 2 cases with hip dislocation received closed reduction under general anesthesia and were fixed with hip joint abduction braces for 6 weeks; one case had a superficial infection and received debridement with a delayed wound healing. Oncologic prognosis: one case relapsed at 8-month follow-up and received hemi-pelvic amputation; and another osteosarcoma patient experienced relapse with pulmonary metastasis and received further chemotherapy. No prosthetic loosening, displacement or fracture occurred during the follow-up period. Conclusion Preliminary results suggested that the use of tantalum components in the management of acetabular reconstruction following periacetabular oncologic resection provided reasonable improvement on functional outcomes and early stability of the prostheses. Porous tantalum components are conducive to bony ingrowth, which is a potential alternative to various existing reconstruction techniques to achieve better functional outcomes.

MATERIALS 2022; 15:ma15144731. [PMID: 35888198 PMCID: PMC9315853 DOI: 10.3390/ma15144731] [Citation(s) in RCA: 10] [Impact Index Per Article: 5.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 05/13/2022] [Revised: 06/20/2022] [Accepted: 07/02/2022] [Indexed: 11/22/2022]
Abstract
The high cost of biofabricated titanium mesh plates can make them out of reach for hospitals in low-income countries. To increase the availability of cranioplasty, the authors of this work investigated the production of polymer-based endoprostheses. Recently, cheap, popular desktop 3D printers have generated sufficient opportunities to provide patients with on-demand and on-site help. This study also examines the technologies of 3D printing, including SLM, SLS, FFF, DLP, and SLA. The authors focused their interest on the materials in fabrication, which include PLA, ABS, PET-G, PEEK, and PMMA. Three-dimensional printed prostheses are modeled using widely available CAD software with the help of patient-specific DICOM files. Even though the topic is insufficiently researched, it can be perceived as a relatively safe procedure with a minimal complication rate. There have also been some initial studies on the costs and legal regulations. Early case studies provide information on dozens of patients living with self-made prostheses and who are experiencing significant improvements in their quality of life. Budget 3D-printed endoprostheses are reliable and are reported to be significantly cheaper than the popular counterparts manufactured from polypropylene polyester.

Efficacy and safety of a 3D-printed arthrodesis prosthesis for reconstruction after resection of the proximal humerus: preliminary outcomes with a minimum 2-year follow-up. BMC Musculoskelet Disord 2022; 23:635. [PMID: 35787280 PMCID: PMC9251937 DOI: 10.1186/s12891-022-05581-6] [Citation(s) in RCA: 1] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.5] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 04/18/2021] [Accepted: 06/23/2022] [Indexed: 11/23/2022] Open
Abstract
Background The purpose of this study was to investigate the feasibility of using a three-dimensional (3D)-printed arthrodesis prosthesis for reconstruction of the proximal humeral defect after tumor resection. Methods A novel proximal humeral prosthesis was designed to restore bone continuity and shoulder arthrodesis and was fabricated via 3D printing technology. Ten patients with primary malignancies in the proximal humerus underwent intra-articular resection and replacement with this prosthesis from 2017 to 2019. Baseline and operative data, oncological and prosthetic survival, and functional status were summarized. Results This cohort consisted of 9 males and 1 female with a mean age of 32.1 ± 16.1 years. Diagnoses included 5 cases of osteosarcoma, 3 cases of chondrosarcoma and 1 each case of undifferentiated pleomorphic sarcoma and malignant myoepithelioma. The mean operative duration, intraoperative hemorrhage and postoperative length of hospitalization were 151.5 ± 61.0 min, 410.0 ± 353.4 ml and 5.3 ± 1.9 d, respectively. The mean follow-up duration was 29.3 ± 6.4 months, with a minimum of 24 months for the surviving patients. Two patients experienced local recurrence, and four patients developed distant metastases. Detachment of the taper occurred in two patients. One was managed conservatively, and the other received amputation due to concurrent tumor recurrence. The mean MSTS-93 and ASES scores and ranges of forwards flexion and abduction were 24.9 ± 3.1, 79.4 ± 8.3, 71.3 ± 19.4°, and 61.3 ± 16.4°, respectively. The functional outcomes were independent of the preservation of the axillary nerve. Histological study of the glenoid component showed evidence of bone ingrowth at the bone-prosthesis porous interface. Conclusion Application of the 3D-printed arthrodesis prosthesis might be a safe and efficacious method for functional reconstruction in patients who underwent resection of the proximal humerus, especially for those without preservation of the axillary nerve.

Abstract
With the developing of three-dimensional (3D) printing technology, it is widely used in the treatment of bone tumors in the clinical orthopedics. Because of the great individual differences in the location of bone tumor, resection and reconstruction are difficult. Based on 3D printing technology, the 3D models can be prepared to show the anatomical part of the disease, so that the surgeons can create a patient-specific operational plans based on better understand the local conditions. At the same time, preoperative simulation can also be carried out for complex operations and patient-specific prostheses can be further designed and prepared according to the location and size of tumor, which may have more advantages in adaptability. In this paper, the domestic and international research progress of 3D printing technology in the treatment of limb bone tumors in recent years were reviewed and summarized.

Abstract
This article reviews the development and progress in the field of limb salvage treatment, surgical techniques, and function reconstruction of pelvic malignant tumors in China in the past 30 years. Based on the surgical classification of pelvic tumor resection in different parts, the development of surgical techniques and bone defect repair and reconstruction methods were described in detail. In recent years, in view of the worldwide problem of biological reconstruction after pelvic tumor resection, Chinese researchers have systematically proposed the repair and reconstruction methods and prosthesis design for bone defects after resection of different parts for the first time in the world. In addition, a systematic surgical classification (Beijing classification) was first proposed for the difficult situation of pelvic tumors involving the sacrum, as well as the corresponding surgical plan and repair and reconstruction methods. Through unremitting efforts, the limb salvage rate of pelvic malignant tumors in China has reached more than 80%, which has preserved limbs and restored walking function for the majority of patients, greatly reduced surgical complications, and achieved internationally remarkable results.

Abstract
Background Reconstruction of pelvis girdle stability after tumor-induced hemipelvectomy remains challenging. We surgically treated 13 patients with custom-made, three-dimensional printed hemipelvic prostheses. We aim to identify the preliminary outcomes for patients who have been managed with more mixed regions of prosthetic pelvic reconstruction and the feasibility of two reconstructive systems. Methods Seven male patients and 6 female patients treated at our center between January 2019 and May 2021 were included. There were 11 primary sarcomas and 2 solitary bone metastases. After en bloc tumor resection, two types of personalized, three-dimensional printed prostheses were fixed to restore the stability and rebuild the load transfer. The position of the reconstructed hemipelvis was evaluated on an anteroposterior plain radiograph. The complications and outcomes were traced. One amputation specimen was discovered through histological analysis of the porous structure. Results The operative duration was 467 ± 144 min, and the blood loss was 3,119 ± 662 ml. During a follow-up of 22.4 ± 8.5 months, two patients had delayed wound healing and one had a second-stage flap transfer. One patient with osteosarcoma died of pulmonary metastasis 27 months after surgery. Two patients with marginal resection suffered from local recurrence and had extra surgeries. One patient had traumatic hip dislocation 2 months after surgery and manipulative reduction was performed. The acetabular inclination of the affected side was 42.2 ± 4.3°, compared with 42.1 ± 3.9° on the contralateral side. The horizontal distance between the center of the femoral head and the middle vertical line was 10.4 ± 0.6 cm, while the reconstructed side was 9.8 ± 0.8 cm. No significant difference in acetabular position after surgery was found (p > 0.05). The amputation specimen harvested from one patient with local recurrence demonstrated bone and soft tissue ingrowth within the three-dimensional printed trabecular structure. Walking ability was preserved in all patients who are still alive and no prosthesis-related complications occurred. The MSTS score was 22.0 ± 3.7. Conclusions Both types of custom-made, three-dimensional printed prostheses manifested excellent precision, mechanical stability, and promising functional rehabilitation. The porous structure exhibited favorable histocompatibility to facilitate the ingrowth of bone and soft tissue.

Abstract
The treatment of periacetabular malignancy frequently challenges surgeons. To simplify the surgical procedure, we performed a novel reconstruction strategy preserving the femoral head for patients with periacetabular malignancies. We retrospectively reviewed 14 patients who underwent total en bloc resection of a periacetabular tumor and reconstruction of the hip joint with an individualized hemipelvic endoprosthesis and remaining femoral head from July 2015 to January 2019 at our center. Regions of pelvic resection: region II-4 (28.6%), region I + II-5 (35.7%), region II + III-2 (14.3%) and region I + II + III-3 (21.4%). The oncological outcomes were that 13 patients survived without disease and one patient survived with lung metastasis. None of the patients experienced local recurrence (range: 20-62 months; mean: 32 months). The incidence of postoperative complications was 35.7%, including delayed wound healing and deep venous thrombosis. No prosthesis-related complications occurred until the last follow-up in this study (range: 20-62 months; mean: 32 months). The mean Musculoskeletal Tumor Society functional outcome score was 23.2. The mean Toronto Extremity Salvage Score of the patients was 75.7 points, with a mean limb discrepancy of 1.51 cm (range: 0.5-3.2 cm). Reconstruction with preservation of the femoral head showed acceptable early functional and oncological outcomes, and it had an acceptable complication rate.

Abstract
AIMS The aim of this study was to investigate the feasibility of application of a 3D-printed megaprosthesis with hemiarthroplasty design for defects of the distal humerus or proximal ulna following tumour resection. METHODS From June 2018 to January 2020, 13 patients with aggressive or malignant tumours involving the distal humerus (n = 8) or proximal ulna (n = 5) were treated by en bloc resection and reconstruction with a 3D-printed megaprosthesis with hemiarthroplasty, designed in our centre. In this paper, we summarize the baseline and operative data, oncological outcome, complication profiles, and functional status of these patients. RESULTS Preparation of the prosthesis was a mean of 8.0 days (SD 1.5), during which time no patients experienced tumour progression. The mean operating time and intraoperative blood loss were 158.1 minutes (SD 67.6) and 176.9 ml (SD 187.8), respectively. All of the prostheses were implanted successfully. During a mean follow-up of 25.7 months (SD 7.8), no patients died, but four had complications (two superficial wound problems, one temporary palsy of radial nerve, and one dislocation). No aseptic loosening, structural failure, infection, heterotopic ossification, or degenerative arthritis was seen in this study. The mean flexion of the elbow was 119.6° (SD 15.9°) and the mean extension lag was 11.9° (SD 13.8°). The mean Musculoskeletal Tumor Society 93 score and Mayo Elbow Performance Score were 28.4 (SD 0.9) and 97.7 (SD 4.4), respectively. CONCLUSION The custom-made, 3D-printed megaprosthesis with hemiarthroplasty is a feasible option for functional reconstruction after resection of a tumour in the distal humerus or proximal ulna.

Pelvic Endoprosthesis after Hemipelvectomy Using a 3D-Printed Osteotomy Guide for Infiltrative Osteoma in a Cat. Vet Sci 2022; 9:vetsci9050237.

Abstract
With the development of 3D printing and surgical techniques, various defect reconstruction methods after tumor resection have been applied not only in humans but also in veterinary medicine. This report describes a case of reconstruction after hemipelvectomy for an osteoma in a cat using a 3D-printed pelvic endoprosthesis and micro total hip replacement (mTHR). A 5-year-old spayed female Turkish Angora cat was referred for a 1-month history of constipation and intermittent weight-bearing lameness in the left hindlimb. An osteoma in the pelvis measuring 4.5 × 3 × 5.4 cm was identified based on diagnostic examinations. A left mid-to-caudal partial and right caudal partial hemipelvectomy, and a left femoral head and neck osteotomy, were planned to remove the mass. Reconstruction of the bone defect using 3D-printed metal endoprosthesis and mTHR in the left hindlimb was intended. During right caudal partial hemipelvectomy, right femoral head and neck osteotomy was performed because there was infiltration in the medial wall of the acetabulum. Histopathological examination confirmed the diagnosis of an osteoma. Two weeks post-surgery, surgical debridement and femoral stem removal were performed because of delayed wound healing and sciatic neurapraxia, leading to femoral stem dislocation from the cup. The delayed wound healing and sciatic neurapraxia were appropriately addressed. The cat regained normal weight and defecation 4 weeks post-operatively. Two years post-surgery, the patient recovered with an almost normal gait. Hemipelvectomy with 3D-printed endoprosthesis provides a safe surgical option with favorable outcomes for neoplasms in the pelvis of cats.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Periacetabular malignant tumor seriously endangers the life and health of patients. Hemipelvic replacement provides a good method for patients who want complete resection of the tumor while retaining or restoring the function of the affected limb. OBJECTIVE To investigate the performance and clinical application of the new adjustable modular hemipelvic prosthesis and to compare the effects of three kinds of hemipelvic prosthesis. METHODS In this study, 23 patients, with an average age of 44.6 years (21-75 years), were collected, who received hemipelvic replacement with new adjustable, modular, and screw-rod system hemipelvic prosthesis. Preoperative preparation was conducted on them, and operative complications were recorded. Postoperative functional follow-up was performed regularly. RESULTS The average operation time was 319 min (170-480 min), and the average blood loss was 2813 ml (1000 mL-8000 ml). The incidence of complications was 47.8%, and type A (wound-related complications) had the highest incidence (34.8%). Postoperative dislocation occurred in 3 cases (13.0%), and no dislocation occurred in the new adjustable modular hemipelvic prosthesis group. The average MSTS score of the patients was 18.6 (10-23), and the average Harris score was 73.7 (53-87). CONCLUSIONS The new adjustable modular hemipelvic prosthesis has the feasibility of reconstruction and good functional outcome, making it ideal for periacetabular tumors. Furthermore, preoperative tumor-feeding artery embolization and abdominal aortic balloon implantation may be an effective choice to reduce intraoperative blood loss and facilitate the operation of tumor resection.

Abstract
Allograft bone fractures are critical complications in massive allograft bone transplantations. There are limited studies available on the application of 3D printing for massive allograft bone transplantation complications, and no related reports on the treatment of an allograft bone fracture with a complete biological intramedullary nail. A complex case of allograft bone fracture after massive bone transplantation for a right tibial osteosarcoma was treated with fixation of an individualized 3D printed biological tibial intramedullary nail. Prior to the operation, the intramedullary nail was designed and printed based on the results of computed tomography examination of the affected limb, and the surface of the intramedullary nail was treated with a hydroxyapatite coating. Intraoperatively, the intramedullary nail was implanted according to the preoperative 3D design plan. The intraoperative and postoperative examinations showed that the 3D printed intramedullary nail achieved good matching between the implant and the medullary cavity, and the biological coating integrated well with surrounding bone. The follow-up results 44 months postoperatively showed that the patient was satisfied with the surgical results, where his ankle function met his daily needs, and the Musculoskeletal Tumor Society score was 24. 3D printing tibial intramedullary nail fixation can be successful in the treatment of allograft bone fractures and should be considered as a treatment of choice. In this case, the intramedullary nail matched the surrounding bone well, had good osseointegration, and the patient regained basic function.

Clinical Outcome and Fracture Risk Prediction of Benign Bone Tumors on the Acetabular Dome: 7-Year Clinical Experience and a Finite Element Analysis. EVIDENCE-BASED COMPLEMENTARY AND ALTERNATIVE MEDICINE 2022; 2022:5150474. [PMID: 35321500 PMCID: PMC8938047 DOI: 10.1155/2022/5150474] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 11/02/2021] [Revised: 01/05/2022] [Accepted: 02/17/2022] [Indexed: 02/05/2023]
Abstract
The treatment of benign pelvic lesions and tumors is still a challenge in clinical orthopedics. The surgical procedure was complicated and the postoperative complication was hard to avoid usually. The purpose of this study is to analyze the clinical outcome and predict the fracture risk of benign bone tumors on acetabular dome by finite element analysis. In our research, clinical data of 25 patients were collected from January 2010 to January 2017, including basic information of patients, reconstruction methods, complications, and postoperative MSTS function scores. Finite element analysis (FEA) was used to predict the fracture risk when a benign tumor involved an acetabular dome. 25 patients were followed up for 37.5 ± 5.6 (ranging from 24 to 78) months. Intraoperative bleeding was 100–3000 ml (mean 858.3 ml). The postoperative MSTS93 score was 19.61 ± 7.32 before operation and 26.28 ± 15.59 at the last follow-up. The results of finite element analysis suggest that there was a high risk for pathological fracture in the following: both columns were damaged by tumors; the anterior column and 50% of the posterior column were affected. Other cases were in the low fracture risk group. Based on this study, we believe that, according to the risk assessment results of tumor cavity fracture suggested by the FEA results, combined with the nature of tumor, it may become a useful tool which is a great significance to guide the operation plan, select the operation time, and guide the postoperative functional exercise.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Conventional periacetabular pelvic resections are associated with poor functional outcomes. Resections through surgical corridors beyond the conventional margins may be helpful in retaining greater function without compromising the oncological margins. METHODS The study included a retrospective review of 82 cases of pelvic resections for pelvic tumors. Outcomes of acetabulum preservation (Group A) were compared with complete acetabular resection (Group B). Also, we compared outcomes of Type I + half resections (Group 1) with Type I + II resections (Group 2), and Type III + half resections (Group 3) with Type II + III resections (Group 4). RESULTS Group A (n = 44) had significantly better functional outcome than Group B (n = 38) with average MSTS93 score 22.3 versus 20.1 and average HHS 91.3 versus 82.5 (p < 0.001). Group 1 (n = 14) and Group 2 (n = 12) had similar functional outcomes (mean MSTS93 score 22.07 vs. 21.58 [p = 0.597] and mean HHS 90.37 vs. 86.51 [p = 0.205]). Group 3 (n = 11) had significantly better functional outcome than Group 4 (n = 17), with mean MSTS93 score 22.8 versus 19.7 (p < 0.001) and mean HHS 92.3 versus 80.1 (p < 0.001). Oncological outcomes were similar among the groups. CONCLUSION Transacetabular pelvic resections provide functional benefit over conventional resections without compromising oncological margins. There is a need to revisit and revise the pelvic resection planes.

Chondrosarcoma of the proximal radius treated by wide resection and reconstructed by 3D printed implant: A case report and description of surgical technique. Int J Surg Case Rep 2022; 91:106770. [PMID: 35042125 PMCID: PMC8777282 DOI: 10.1016/j.ijscr.2022.106770] [Citation(s) in RCA: 1] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.5] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 12/02/2021] [Revised: 01/08/2022] [Accepted: 01/10/2022] [Indexed: 11/29/2022] Open
Abstract
Introduction Chondrosarcoma is the second most common primary malignancy of bone that can occur in multiple locations in the skeleton. It has been rarely reported in the proximal radius. While surgical resection is the primary treatment modality for individuals with localized disease, reconstruction can be challenging in the elbow joint due to its complex anatomy. 3D printing technology can be used in such complex cases to restore the normal anatomy after resection. Case presentation We present a case of mesenchymal chondrosarcoma in a 33-year-old male occurring in the proximal radius, restricting his elbow motion. That was resected and reconstructed using 3D modeling. Restoring a functional range of motion without instability. Discussion Many surgical options for chondrosarcoma presented over the years including en bloc resection, resection with or without reconstruction, or amputation. Usage of 3D modeling in the orthopedic surgery field is relatively new and it can be used in pre-operative planning and shortens surgical time. 3D printing in our case helped in obtaining a full range of motion (flexion, extension, pronation, and supination) for the patient. Conclusion It's important to reconstruct elbow joint support structure and function after resection of such a large malignant tumor in young patients. We used 3D printed implant to maintain a functional limb and it was an excellent alternative treatment. Chondrosarcoma occurring in the proximal radius is very rare. Up to our knowledge, this is the second case report. We report a case of proximal radius chondrosarcoma managed by reconstruction with Three-Dimension printed implant. 3D printing in the field of orthopedic surgery is relatively new and has upscaled medical management. A description of a surgical technique to reconstruct proximal radius and maintaining full range of motion of the elbow.

Abstract
Background The precise acetabular reconstruction has historically been a challenging procedure. 3D-printed patient-specific guide (PSG) and computer navigation (CN) technologies have been used to assist acetabular component positioning and pelvic reconstruction. This precise reconstruction approach may translate into clinical benefit. Methods The clinical data of 84 patients who underwent periacetabular malignant tumor resection and screw-rod-acetabular cage system reconstruction in our center from January 2013 to December 2020 were retrospectively analyzed. Patients were divided into four groups: free hand (FH) group, PSG group, CN group, and PSG combined with computer navigation (PSG + CN) group. The operation time, intraoperative blood loss, and number of fluoroscopy views were recorded. The oncological prognosis, radiographic measurements of the acetabulum, limb function data, and postoperative complications were compared among groups. And finally, we evaluated the risk factors for mechanical failure of the prosthesis. Results The postoperative X-ray and computed tomography (CT) scan revealed that the vertical offset discrepancy (VOD) between affected side and contralateral side was 8.4±1.9, 5.9±2.2, 4.1±1.3, and 2.4±1.2 mm in each groups; the horizontal offset discrepancy (HOD) was 9.0±1.9, 6.1±2.2, 3.2±1.3, and 2.1±1.2 mm, correspondingly; the abduction angle discrepancy (ABAD) was 8.6°±1.8°, 5.6°±2.0°, 2.5°±1.3°, and 1.8°±0.9°, respectively; the anteversion angle discrepancy (ANAD) was 5.9°±1.6°, 3.6°±1.7°, 2.9°±1.6°, and 1.9°±0.9°, correspondingly. Statistical results show that the PSG + CN group was superior to the FH group and the PSG group in terms of acetabular position and limb function (P<0.05). Body mass index (P=0.040) and resection type (P=0.042) were found to be the high-risk factors for mechanical failure of the prosthesis. Conclusions PSG + CN has potential advantages in improving the accuracy and safety of acetabular positioning and reconstruction.

Abstract
Limb-salvage surgery for pelvic sarcomas remains one of the most challenging surgical procedures for musculoskeletal oncologists. In the past several decades, various surgical techniques have been developed for periacetabular reconstruction following pelvic tumor resection. These methods include endoprosthetic reconstruction, allograft or autograft reconstruction, arthrodesis, and hip transposition. Each of these procedures has its own advantages and disadvantages, and there is no consensus or gold standard for periacetabular reconstruction. Consequently, this review provides an overview of the clinical outcomes for each of these reconstructive options following pelvic tumor resections. Overall, high complication rates are associated with the use of massive implants/grafts, and deep infection is generally the most common cause of reconstruction failure. Functional outcomes decline with the occurrence of severe complications. Further efforts to avoid complications using innovative techniques, such as antibiotic-laden devices, computer navigation, custom cutting jigs, and reduced use of implants/grafts, are crucial to improve outcomes, especially in patients at a high risk of complications.

Individualized 3D printing-assisted repair and reconstruction of neoplastic bone defects at irregular bone sites: exploration and practice in the treatment of scapular aneurysmal bone cysts. BMC Musculoskelet Disord 2021; 22:984. [PMID: 34823490 PMCID: PMC8620964 DOI: 10.1186/s12891-021-04859-5] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 05/09/2021] [Accepted: 11/03/2021] [Indexed: 11/10/2022] Open
Abstract
BACKGROUND The irregular anatomical shape and complex structures of irregular bones make it more difficult to repair and reconstruct bone defects in irregular bones than in the long bones of the extremities. Three-dimensional (3D) printing technology can help to overcome the technical limitations of irregular bone repair by generating simulations that enable structural integration of the lesion area and bone structure of the donor site in all directions and at multiple angles. Thus, personalized and accurate treatment plans for restoring anatomical structure, muscle attachment points, and maximal function can be made. The present study aimed to investigate the ability of 3D printing technology to assist in the repair and reconstruction of scapular aneurysmal ABC defects. METHODS The study included seven patients with ABCs of the scapula. Based on computed tomography (CT) data for the patient, the scapula (including the defect) and pelvis were reconstructed using Mimics Medical software. The reconstructed scapula model was printed using a 3D printer. Before the operation, the model was used to design the surgical approach and simulate the operation process, to determine the length and radius of the plate and the number and direction of screws, and to determine the bone mass of the ilium and develop reasonable strategies for segmentation and distribution. The operation time, amount of bleeding, length and radius of the plate, and direction and number of screws were recorded. RESULTS The average duration of follow-up was 25.6 months, and none of the seven patients experienced recurrence during the follow-up period. The surgical approach, the length and radius of internal fixation, and the number and direction of screws were consistent with the designed operation plan. Patients gradually recovered the anatomical structure of the scapula and function of the shoulder joint. CONCLUSIONS In the treatment of bone defects caused by irregular bone tumors, 3D printing technology combined with surgery has the advantages of less trauma, short operation time, less bleeding and reducing the difficulty of operation, which can reduce the waste of bone graft, and more complete reconstruction of the anatomical structure of the defective bone.

Abstract
Biomimetics is an emerging field of science that adapts the working principles from nature to fine-tune the engineering design aspects to mimic biological structure and functions. The application mainly focuses on the development of medical implants for hard and soft tissue replacements. Additive manufacturing or 3D printing is an established processing norm with a superior resolution and control over process parameters than conventional methods and has allowed the incessant amalgamation of biomimetics into material manufacturing, thereby improving the adaptation of biomaterials and implants into the human body. The conventional manufacturing practices had design restrictions that prevented mimicking the natural architecture of human tissues into material manufacturing. However, with additive manufacturing, the material construction happens layer-by-layer over multiple axes simultaneously, thus enabling finer control over material placement, thereby overcoming the design challenge that prevented developing complex human architectures. This review substantiates the dexterity of additive manufacturing in utilizing biomimetics to 3D print ceramic, polymer, and metal implants with excellent resemblance to natural tissue. It also cites some clinical references of experimental and commercial approaches employing biomimetic 3D printing of implants.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE To evaluate the safety and stability of 3D-printed interbody fusion cages (3D-printed cages) in anterior cervical discectomy and fusion (ACDF) by investigating the mid- and long-term follow-up outcomes. METHODS In this prospective study, the clinical data of 30 patients with CSM admitted to the Second Hospital of Shanxi Medical University from May 2012 to May 2014 were analyzed. The cohort comprised 18 males and 12 females with an average age of 60.22 ± 3.2 years. All patients were examined by X-ray, CT and MRI before the operation. A total of 30 cases of CSM were treated by ACDF with 3D printed cage implantation. Mid- and long-term follow-ups were performed after the surgery. Clinical efficacy was evaluated by comparing the JOA score, SF-36 score, change in neurological function, cervical curvature index (CCI), vertebral intervertebral height (VIH) and fusion rate before the operation, 6 months after the operation, and at the last follow-up. RESULTS Two of the 30 patients were lost to follow-up. The remaining patients were followed up for 48-76 (65.23 ± 3.54) months. The patients recovered satisfactorily with a significant clinical effect. The JOA score increased meanfully and the improvement rate was 89.4% at the final follow-up. The SF-36 score increased significantly from pre- to postoperatively. The height of the intervertebral space at the last follow-up was not statistically significantly different from that at 6 months after surgery (P > 0.05), showing that the height of the intervertebral space did not change much and the severity of cage subsidence (CS) decreased. The CCI improved from pre- to postoperatively. The CCI did not change much from the 6-month follow-up to the last follow-up. and the cage rate (CR) was 100% at the 6-month and last follow-ups. No severe complications, such as spinal cord injury, esophageal fistula, cerebrospinal fluid leakage, cervical hematoma or wound infection, occurred in any of the patients. CONCLUSION The clinical and radiological results show that the application of 3D-printed cages in ACDF can significantly relieve symptoms. Moreover, 3D-printed cages can restore the curvature of the cervical spine, effectively maintain the intervertebral height for a long time, and prevent complications related to postoperative subsidence.

Abstract
Primary bone sarcomas are rare tumors and surgical resection in combination with chemo and radiation therapy is the mainstay of treatment. Some specific anatomical sites still represent a reconstructive challenge due to their complex three-dimensional anatomy. In recent years, patient specific instruments along with 3D printing technology has come to represent innovative techniques in orthopaedic oncology. We retrospectively reviewed 23 patients affected by primary bone sarcoma treated with patient-specific instruments and 3D printing custom made prostheses. At follow up after approximately two years, the infection rate was 26%, mechanical complication rate 13%, and local recurrence rate 13% (with a five-years implant survival rate of 74%). Based on our experience, patient-specific instruments and 3D custom-made prostheses represents a reliable and safe technique for improving the accuracy of resection of primary bone tumour, with a particular use in pelvic surgery ameliorating functional results.

Abstract
The incidence of peripheral hip diseases is increasing every year, and its treatment is always tricky due to the complexity of hip joint anatomy and a variety of surgical methods. This paper summarizes the application research and progress of three-dimensional (3D) printing technology in different peripheral hip diseases in recent years published by PubMed from January 2017 to July 2021 with the search terms including “3D or three-dimensional, print*, and hip*. In general, the application of 3D printing technology is mainly to print bone models of patients, make surgical plans, and simulate pre-operation, customized surgical navigation templates for precise positioning or targeted resection of tissue or bone, and customized patient-specific instruments (PSI) fully conforms to the patient’s anatomical morphology. It mainly reduces operative time, intraoperative blood loss, and improves joint function. Consequently, 3D printing technology can be customized according to the patient’s disease condition, which provides a new option for treating complex hip diseases and has excellent application and development potential.

BMC Musculoskelet Disord 2021; 22:734. [PMID: 34452607 PMCID: PMC8401189 DOI: 10.1186/s12891-021-04617-7] [Citation(s) in RCA: 5] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.7] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 05/05/2021] [Accepted: 08/11/2021] [Indexed: 11/24/2022] Open
Abstract
BACKGROUND The repair of large bone defects is a great challenge for orthopedics. Although the development of three-dimensional (3D) printed titanium alloy (Ti6Al4V) implants with optimized the pore structure have effectively promoted the osseointegration. However, due to the biological inertia of Ti6Al4Vsurface and the neglect of angiogenesis, some patients still suffer from postoperative complications such as dislocation or loosening of the prosthesis. METHODS The purpose of this study was to construct 3D printed porous Ti6Al4V scaffolds filled with bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells (BMSC) and endothelial progenitor cells (EPC) loaded hydrogel and evaluate the efficacy of this composite implants on osteogenesis and angiogenesis, thus promoting osseointegration. RESULTS The porosity and pore size of prepared 3D printed porous Ti6Al4V scaffolds were 69.2 ± 0.9 % and 593.4 ± 16.9 μm, respectively, which parameters were beneficial to bone ingrowth and blood vessel formation. The BMSC and EPC filled into the pores of the scaffolds after being encapsulated by hydrogels can maintain high viability. As a cell containing composite implant, BMSC and EPC loaded hydrogel incorporated into 3D printed porous Ti6Al4V scaffolds enhancing osteogenesis and angiogenesis to repair bone defects efficiently. At the transcriptional level, the composite implant up-regulated the expression levels of the osteogenesis-related genes alkaline phosphatase (ALP) and osteocalcin (OCN), and angiogenesis-related genes hypoxia-inducible factor 1 alpha (HIF-1α), and vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF). CONCLUSIONS Overall, the strategy of loading porous Ti6Al4V scaffolds to incorporate cells is a promising treatment for improving osseointegration.
