Fluoroscopically Calibrated 3D-Printed Tools Increase Osteotomy Precision During Tumor Resection Near Joints
30. 10. 2024 Source: proLékaře.czThe area around the knee is a common site for malignant bone tumors, such as osteosarcomas. Their removal typically involves R0 resection, which is the complete removal of tumor tissue. Because these tumors are located close to joints, a wide resection often extending into the joint is necessary. However, with advances in imaging techniques and new technologies, joint-preserving procedures are increasingly being performed. Surgeons are assisted in this by tools custom-made for specific procedures.
