Custom Implants & 3D Printing

Custom Implants & 3D Printing

Custom implants and 3D printing technology have transformed modern orthopaedic oncology surgery by enabling highly precise, patient-specific reconstruction. When tumours affect complex bone structures, standard implants may not always provide the ideal anatomical fit. At the practice of Dr. Narendra Singh Butola in Dehradun, advanced 3D planning and customised implant solutions are used to improve surgical accuracy, structural stability, and long-term functional outcomes.

Why Is It Necessary?

Precision in Complex Tumour Cases

Certain bone tumours involve irregular or anatomically complex regions such as the pelvis, shoulder, or around joints. Standard implants may not adequately match these unique defects. Custom-designed implants created through 3D modelling allow more accurate reconstruction tailored to the patient’s anatomy.

Improved Surgical Planning

3D printing technology enables detailed preoperative planning using patient-specific imaging. Surgeons can visualise tumour margins, assess bone loss, and simulate reconstruction strategies before the actual procedure. This preparation enhances surgical precision and reduces intraoperative uncertainty.

Better Structural Fit & Stability

Custom implants are designed to match the exact dimensions of the bone defect after tumour removal. This improves alignment, load distribution, and joint mechanics. A precise fit supports long-term implant stability and functional recovery.

Enhanced Functional Outcomes

By recreating anatomical structure more accurately, patient-specific implants help preserve mobility and strength wherever possible. Combined with structured rehabilitation, this approach supports smoother recovery and improved quality of life following complex tumour surgery.
