The application of 3D printing technology in obstetrics and gynaecology

Comparing three‐dimensional models of placenta accreta spectrum with surgical findings

“…The model contained two segments-hematoma and uterus-with the intention of allowing clinicians a superior appreciation of the extent of the hematoma compared with 2D MRI. 18 Chen et al 19 report the first two fabricated models of placenta percreta. Although they report using these models in surgical planning, the accuracy of the models compared with surgical and pathological findings was not reported.…”

“…Yoong et al 18 developed a 3D model of a broad ligament hematoma. The model contained two segments—hematoma and uterus—with the intention of allowing clinicians a superior appreciation of the extent of the hematoma compared with 2D MRI 18 . Chen et al 19 report the first two fabricated models of placenta percreta.…”
