Case Report: Winkelmann hip rotationplasty as a last-resort solution.

Background: Rotationplasty, an invasive surgery, serves as an alternative to amputation in pediatric orthopedic oncology. It is currently applied in broader cases (e.g.

FixThePig: a custom 3D-printed femoral intramedullary nailing for preclinical research applications.

Background: Critical-size bone defects (CSBDs) pose significant challenges in clinical orthopaedics and traumatology. Developing reliable preclinical models that accurately simulate human conditions is crucial for translational research. This study addresses the need for a reliable preclinical model by evaluating the design and efficacy of a custom-made 3D-printed intramedullary nail (IMN) specifically for CSBDs in minipigs.

Case Report: Custom made 3D implants for glenoid tumor reconstruction should be designed as reverse total shoulder arthroplasty.

Background And Objectives: Isolated bone tumors of the glenoid are exceedingly rare occurrence and pose a substantial surgical challenge. 3D printing technology has been proved to be a reliable tool to reconstruct complex anatomical part of the skeleton. We initially used this technology to reconstruct the glenoid component of the shoulder in a hemiarthroplasty configuration.

HLA Awareness in tissue decellularization: A paradigm shift for enhanced biocompatibility, studied on the model of the human fascia lata graft.

Last twenties, tissue engineering has rapidly advanced to address the shortage of organ donors. Decellularization techniques have been developed to mitigate immune rejection and alloresponse in transplantation. However, a clear definition of effective decellularization remains elusive.
