Three-Dimensional Custom-Made Titanium Ribs for Reconstruction of a Large Chest Wall Defect
Reconstruction of large chest wall defects always demand surgeons of having lots of means available (both materials and resourceful) to apply a cover to chest wall defects which can range from a few centimeters to the lack of a few entire ribs. In this study, we present the case of a teenager who suffered from a complete resection of three ribs because of Ewing sarcoma dependent on the sixth ri...
متن کاملSkull Reconstruction with Custom Made Three-Dimensional Titanium Implant
BACKGROUND Source material used to fill calvarial defects includes autologous bones and synthetic alternatives. While autologous bone is preferable to synthetic material, autologous reconstruction is not always feasible due to defect size, unacceptable donor-site morbidity, and other issues. Today, advanced three-dimensional (3D) printing techniques allow for fabrication of titanium implants cu...
متن کامل[Chest wall reconstruction after resection of chest wall tumors].
Between 1994 and 2012, chest wall resection and reconstruction were performed 15 patients (16 cases) with primary chest wall tumors, metastatic tumors. and chest wall recurrence of breast carcinoma. In all the patients, reconstruction of the chest wall was performed using layers of polypropylene Marlex mesh sheets. In 9 patients, only Marlex mesh sheets were used. The post-operative course was ...
متن کاملCustom-made total joint prostheses for temporomandibular joint reconstruction.
BUMC PROCEEDINGS 2000;13:135–138 Jaw joint (temporomandibular joint or TMJ) disease is estimated to affect 30 million Americans, with approximately 1 million new patients diagnosed each year (1). Although many of these patients can be managed with nonsurgical therapies, some patients require surgical intervention. The TMJ is a unique joint in that it does not function independently but works in...
متن کاملTridimensional titanium-printed custom-made prosthesis for sternocostal reconstruction.
A broad range of materials have been described for sternal reconstruction in order to guarantee not only the best preservation of respiratory mechanics, but also adequate mediastinal protection and acceptable cosmetic results. Today, titanium implants are preferred by many surgeons because of their optimal features. As a step forward, tridimensional (3D) laser sintering printing techniques allo...
