Application of a 3-dimensional printed navigation template in Bernese periacetabular osteotomies

چکیده
The aim of the present study was to describe the application of 3D printed templates for intraoperative navigation and simulation of periacetabular osteotomies (PAOs) in a cadaveric model.Five cadaveric specimens (10 sides) underwent thin-slice computed tomographic scans of the ala of ilium downwards to the proximal end of femoral shaft. Bernese PAO was performed. Using Mimics v10.1 software (Materialise, Leuven, Belgium), 3D computed tomographic reconstructions were created and the 4 standard PAO bone cuts-ischial, pubic, anterior, and posterior aspects of the ilium-as well as rotation of the dislocated acetabular bone blocks were simulated for each specimen. Using these data, custom 3D printed bone-drilling templates of the pelvis were manufactured, to guide surgical placement of the PAO bone cuts. An angle fix wedge was designed and printed, to help accurately achieve the predetermined rotation angle of the acetabular bone block. Each specimen underwent a conventional PAO. Preoperative, postsimulation, and postoperative lateral center-edge angles, acetabular indices, extrusion indices, and femoral head coverage were measured and compared; P and t values were calculated for above-mentioned measurements while comparing preoperative and postoperative data, and also in postsimulation and postoperative data comparison.All 10 PAO osteotomies were successfully completed using the 3D printed bone-drilling template and angle fix wedge. No osteotomy entered the hip joint and a single posterior column fracture was observed. Comparison of preoperative and postoperative measurements of the 10 sides showed statistically significant changes, whereas no statistically significant differences between postsimulation and postoperative values were noted, demonstrating the accuracy and utility of the 3D printed templates.The application of patient-specific 3D printed bone-drilling and rotation templates in PAO is feasible and may facilitate improved clinical outcomes, through the use of precise presurgical planning and reduced surgical complications with the precisely guided bone drilling.

A dual anteroposterior approach to the Bernese periacetabular osteotomy.
When the Bernese periacetabular osteotomy is performed through an anterior approach, the ischial and retroacetabular osteotomies and manual fracture of the incompletely osteotomized ischium are conducted with an incomplete view resulting in increased risk and morbidity. We have assessed the dual anteroposterior approach which appears to address this deficiency. We compared the results of the Be...

Introduction Periacetabular osteotomies are performed for improvement of femoral head coverage in a variety of clinical scenarios. A number of osteotomies are in clinical use today, and they differ in surgical technique, amount of coverage attainable, and biomechanical strength. The use of the triple innominate osteotomy in North America was popularized by Steel. In Tonnis' modification of the ...

We treated eight dysplastic acetabula in six skeletally mature patients with Down's syndrome by a modified Bernese periacetabular osteotomy. The mean age at the time of surgery was 16.5 years (12.8 to 28.5). Mean length of follow-up was five years (2 to 10.4).Pre-operatively the mean (Tonnis) acetabular angle was 28 degrees, the centre-edge angle was -9 degrees, and the extrusion index was 60%;...

Acetabular dysplasia is among the most frequent causes of secondary osteoarthritis (OA) of the hip. While hip arthrolasty is a valid option in elderly patients, young and active patients are likely to outlive their implants and therefore may require a different approach. During the last 20 years, the emphasis of these osteotomies shifted from the femoral to the acetabular side, with the Bernese...
