In February 2018, the first 3D-printed biodegradable artificial bone repaired long bone defect was successfully implemented at Xijing Hospital in Xi’an, China. Xijing Hospital has been the breakthrough point for many other important 3D printing operations, and the macroporous bioceramic artificial bone is Produced by Xi'an Microparticle Cloud Biotechnology Co., Ltd. using 3D silkscreen technology. After 6 weeks of review, the operation has now been a complete success. The patient bone defect regeneration effect is good, and the limbs function well. Long bone defects may be caused by various bone diseases or injuries and are often not effectively treated, resulting in serious disability or even amputation in some cases. The orthopedics department of Xijing Hospital is currently trying to treat a 44-year-old male patient who is highly ill. The fall caused a comminuted fracture of the right femur. They found it difficult to achieve the desired results using conventional methods because of the wide range of defects, which are 6 cm (2.36 inches) in length and 3.5 cm (1.37 inches) in diameter. The size of the rule means that resetting is difficult to locate and the hospital seeks help from Xi'an Particle Cloud Biotech. The company's groundbreaking FFP3D printing technology and bio-ceramic composites tested by the National Bureau of Biosafety of China were used to produce personalized porous bio-ceramic artificial bones. The shape of the bone is consistent with the patient's distal segmental bone defect of the femur. Using 3D printing techniques to treat bone defects in this way has many advantages, including high levels of customization, high precision, and efficient use of materials. When producing porous scaffold implants for repairing bone defects, Xi'an Particle Biotechnology's FFP 3D printing technology can accurately adjust a variety of important bone regeneration parameters. These include material composition, pore size, pore structure, connectivity, and porosity ratios. Structures can be tailored to achieve different porosity at the micro and macro levels. Another great advantage of this technology is that it uses biodegradable artificial bone. This material will gradually degrade because it will cause new bone formation in the patient and eventually be completely replaced by new bone tissue. This significantly reduces the The potential risk of problems that may occur with external implants in the body for a long time. Xi'an Particle Cloud Biotechnology Co., Ltd. is one of the world's leading companies and R&D bases for bioengineering, medical care, advanced materials in advanced manufacturing, innovative products and smart device development. The company's biodegradable artificial bone support has a comprehensive human bionic Characteristics, with multi-scale structure, and materials with similar strength to human bones. In addition to its biodegradability, its osteoinductive properties also provide major technical advantages for orthopedic applications. The first successful application of this technology indicates that Expand the treatment of patients with large limb bone defects to provide a high level of personalized repair.
