Three-Dimensional Printing and Computer Navigation for Correction of Multiple Deformities in Osteogenesis Imperfecta: A Case Report.
JBJS Case Connector 2021 May 19
CASE: A 44-year-old man with osteogenesis imperfecta presented with multiple debilitating musculoskeletal deformities. Bi-level osteotomies, assisted by 3-dimensional (3D)-printed patient-specific cutting guides, were performed to correct extraarticular valgus and procurvatum tibial deformities. Concomitant computer-navigated total knee arthroplasty was performed to restore neutral mechanical alignment. Postoperative x-ray showed good correction of deformities, and 1 year postoperatively, the patient is able to walk unaided with significant resolution of knee pain.
CONCLUSION: 3D-printed osteotomy guides and computer navigation can be instrumental in procedures requiring a high degree of precision. With sufficient training, modern orthopaedic technologies can be implemented by surgeons themselves and combined to facilitate precise and personalized management of challenging conditions.
