Computer assisted surgery in preoperative planning of acetabular fracture surgery: state of the art.
Expert Review of Medical Devices 2018 January
INTRODUCTION: The development of imaging modalities and computer technology provides a new approach in acetabular surgery.
AREAS COVERED: This review describes the role of computer-assisted surgery (CAS) in understanding of the fracture patterns, in the virtual preoperative planning of the surgery and in the use of custom-made plates in acetabular fractures with or without 3D printing technologies. A Pubmed internet research of the English literature of the last 20 years was carried out about studies concerning computer-assisted surgery in acetabular fractures. The several steps for CAS in acetabular fracture surgery are presented and commented by the main author regarding to his personal experience.
EXPERT COMMENTARY: Computer-assisted surgery in acetabular fractures is still initial experiences with promising results. Patient-specific biomechanical models considering soft tissues should be developed to allow a more realistic planning.
