Summary

Background: Three-dimensional (3D) patient-specific anatomical model guidance is a reliable tool in obtaining accurate bony cuts, precise implant placement, and satisfactory surgical results. These can enhance surgeon's understanding of their patients' patho-anatomy also helping in precise preoperative planning. So, the hypothesis of this study is that, in the training of orthopaedic residency, 3D printed models reflecting the patient's individual process provide a a foresight and a perception of the bone pathologies and osseous relationships before orthopaedic intervention.

Methods: In this study, the investigators displayed our experience of creating realistic 3D models in orthopaedic surgical case scenarios to evaluate the perceptions of fellows in orthopaedic surgeon training. The investigators based our study on the comparision of the perception of residents who were presented with four-step carousel consisting of different scenarios as trauma (calcaneal fracture), deformity (hallux valgus), tumoral mass (sacral chondrosarcoma), and reconstructive procedure (multidisciplinary cancer surgery). The X-ray images, computed tomography (CT), and 1:1 solid models of the cases were included in each step. The orthopaedic residents were asked to compare their perception level of the actual scenarios in evaluating the effectiveness of each tool in terms of perceiving the orthopaedic problem, understanding the bone pathology, classification of diagnosis and preoperative data planning.
