Custom-made 3D-Printed Prosthesis in Periacetabular Resections Through a Novel Ileo-adductor Approach.

Resection of sarcomas around the acetabulum presents major challenges. The resulting bone effect can be reconstructed with personalized custom-made prostheses. Patient-specific instruments (PSIs) have been demonstrated to be of added value for bone-cutting accuracy, and they may improve pelvic surgery. The authors describe a novel ileo-adductor approach for pelvic tumor surgery and report the preliminary results of 5 reconstructions using custom 3D-printed prostheses associated with PSI surgical guides. This combined technique allows an optimal restoration of the anatomy with reduced surgical time and reduced postoperative complications such as infections and wound healing problems.
