To help surgeons create the four necessary incisions and fix the repaired bone, the Surgical team, in collaboration with Synergy3DMed, is good at performing surgical interventions for 3D printing. 3D scan The girl's arm creates a digital model so that the medical team can analyze the area of interest from all angles Carefully study planning for the required surgical guidance and braces The information in the form of a surgical tool is then passed on to the company so that they The right files can be made for printing in the operating room and ready for use, and magnets are then used during the procedure to place the introducer on the arm, providing valuable help in creating almost flawless procedures.
Dr. Gershon Singer, the head of surgery, said: 'We performed four cuts at very precise angles, including placing three screws that did not deviate completely from the joints or incisions, which is very difficult without 3D printing.' The girl's right arm surgery has progressed smoothly and her plan to correct her left arm deformity is currently being worked out, and at the same time the girl's ability to act and relieve pain is likely to be the new standard for implementing such a procedure.
