The analysis of defects in custom 3D‐printed acetabular cups: A comparative study of commercially available implants from six manufacturers

Abstract: Three-dimensional (3D) printing is used to manufacture custom acetabular cups to treat patients with massive acetabular defects. There is a risk of defects occurring in these, often in the form of structural voids. Our aim was to investigate the presence of voids in commercially available cups. We examined 12, final-production titanium custom acetabular cups, that had been 3D-printed by six manufacturers. We measured their mass, then performed micro-computed tomography (micro-CT) imaging to determine their vol… Show more
