Objective: To investigate the effect and safety of 3D printing technology in proximal femoral osteotomy in children with developmental dysplasia of the hip.
Methods: 40 cases of children with developmental dysplasia of the hip treated by pelvic osteotomy combined with proximal femoral osteotomy at Ningbo No. 6 Hospital from January 2017 to December 2019 were retrieved and retrospectively analyzed. Among them, 20 cases received preoperative measurement and design assisted by 3D printing technology (the 3D printing group), and 20 cases received conventional preoperative measurement and design (the conventional group).
Results: All patients were followed up for an average of 25 (12~36) months. During the follow-up, there were no complications such as infection, fracture of internal fixation, or malunion of osteotomy. Compared with the conventional group, the 3D printing group had a shorter operation time, less intraoperative blood loss, and fewer intraoperative X-ray fluoroscopies (all < 0.05). In the last follow-up, the clinical efficacy was evaluated by the McKay standard: in the 3D printing group, 14 cases were excellent, 5 cases were good, and 1 case was fair. In the conventional group, 10 cases were excellent, 9 cases were good, and 1 case was fair ( = -0.382, > 0.05).
Conclusion: Preoperative 3D printing of bilateral femur and other large physical models is accurate, which is ideal for the development of individual preoperative planning. Proximal femoral osteotomy using preoperative measurements and simulated surgical data improves the safety of the operation.

Developmental knee joint deformities are a common problem in pediatric orthopedics. Children with a valgus or varus deformity of the distal femur or the proximal tibia are commonly treated with hemiepiphysiodesis. Gait analysis in patients with lower limb deformities plays an important role in clinical practice.

: Surgical accuracy in total knee replacement (TKR) may vary with the surgeon, the patient preoperative deformity, and the guiding system to perform the procedure. Navigation systems attempt to increase the intraoperative information the surgeon requires to make the appropriate decisions, sometimes associating cumbersome procedures and unclear effectiveness to place the implant more precisely than conventional instruments. : We conducted a retrospective case-control study with prospective data collection of radiographic measurements (alignment, joint line and patellar height) in a sample of 100 consecutive patients receiving TKR Optetrak Logic PS, either with standard surgical technique with Trulion Instrumentation ( = 59) or with the Guided Personalized Surgery (GPS) system ( = 41).

A basicervical femoral fracture is a relatively uncommon type of proximal femoral fracture. However, as the proportion of proximal femoral fractures rises in conjunction with the aging of society, the absolute number of patients with basicervical femoral fractures is also increasing. Nevertheless, the optimal surgical methods for the treatment of basicervical femoral fractures remain a topic of debate.

The study aimed to evaluate a newly designed semicircular implant for the fixation of Vancouver Type B1 periprosthetic femoral fractures (PFFs) in total hip arthroplasty (THA) patients. To determine its strength and clinical applicability, the new implant was compared biomechanically with conventional fixation methods, such as lateral locking plate fixation and a plate combined with cerclage wires. : Fifteen synthetic femur models were used in this biomechanical study.

The paper presents a detailed gross anatomical description of the elements of the pelvic limb in the African green monkey and provides comparative and differential elements on pelvic limb monkey osteology. The osteometric investigation adds value to the gross morphological and radiological investigation, adjoining metric data to the gross descriptive data set. The main methodology used was the gross morphological investigation, doubled by regular osteometrical and radiographical assessments.
