Three-dimensional printed prosthesis demonstrates functional improvement in a patient with an amputated thumb

Abstract: The Jebsen-Taylor hand function test and Box and Block Test scores improved after application of the prosthesis. Most Quebec User Evaluation of Satisfaction with Assistive Technology results were "very satisfied," and most Orthotics and Prosthetics Users' Survey results were "very easy." Preparing the prosthesis made by three-dimensional scanner and three-dimensional printer was faster and cheaper than preparing a conventional prosthesis. Clinical relevance Using three-dimensional scanning and printing techniq… Show more

“…Three-dimensional printers can produce easily modifiable objects without any fixed moldings, which make the objects unique. Artificial organs using bioprinters [ 1 , 2 ], titanium instrumentation for skull defect [ 3 ] and hip arthroplasty [ 4 , 5 ], and hand prosthesis for amputation [ 6 , 7 ] are examples used in the medical fields. This 3D printing technique makes it possible for physicians and surgeons to create easily patient-tailored products for themselves [ 8 ].…”

“…Since the finger splint designs used in this study did not require total contact with the affected finger, we measured each patient’s finger length with the small joints and modified the design with the above mentioned CAD programs instead of using a 3D scanner. The designed splint was printed with FlashForge Creator Pro (Flash-Forge, City of industry, CA, USA) using the fused deposition modeling (FDM), which involved stacking up melted flexible thermoplastic elastomer filaments layer by layer [ 5 ]. The plastic monofilaments used were either thermoplastic polyurethanes (TPU) for the soft material splint or polylactic acid (PLA) for the hard material splint, which are the same thermoplastic materials used in manufacturing conventional orthosis.…”

“…Примером может служить модель Ascension, показавшая достаточную стабильность, вызвавшая высокую удовлетворенность пациентов, увеличившая средний объем движений и выживаемость. Однако модель была запрещена по двум причинам: 1) из-за низкой костной фиксации и последующей суб люксации; 2) из-за неудовлетворительных рентгенологических показателей (ободок просветления на границе имплантат-кость) [33,39].…”

“…Через 1 год исследований средний объем движений составил 47°, о случаях инфекции не сообщалось. Через 8 лет клинических испытаний арка движения увеличилась, наблюдались исправление деформации и низкий уровень переломов [39]. Кроме пирокарбоновых имплантатов, известны модели Kessler [41], Hagert [42], Lundborg [43] (см.…”
