Three-dimension-printed custom-made prosthetic reconstructions: from revision surgery to oncologic reconstructions

Conclusion3D-printed custom-made prostheses represent a promising reconstructive technique in musculoskeletal oncology and challenging revision surgery. Preliminary results were satisfactory. Further studies are needed to evaluate prosthetic design, fixation methods, and stability of the implants at long-term.
