FILBERTO. Utility of 3d printing in orthopaedic: a systematic review. Rev Cubana Ortop Traumatol [online]. 2023, vol.37, n.3  Epub Apr 15, 2024. ISSN 1561-3100.

The use of 3-Dimensional (3D) printing in orthopaedics keeps pace with technical advancements. However, due to its novelty, few research have examined its application. Therefore, our study aimed to assess the utility of 3D printing in orthopaedics use. We conducted a systematic review study during the period of April-May. Article search was conducted in Google Scholar, National Center for Biotechnology Information, Clinical Key, Pubmed, and Science Direct. We included five publications with a total of 99 patients. Our findings indicate that the orthopaedic application and utilization of 3D printing technologies are expanding. Despite the relative paucity of evidence, these findings suggest the utility of 3D printing technology in a variety of intraoperative deformity correction applications.

Keywords : 3D Printing; additive manufacturing; orthopaedic.
