3D printing enters the medical industry's first 3D printed spine bone graft successfully

Recently, Peking University Third Hospital conducted a 3D print transplant operation, which is one of the largest real-world tests so far. Through the operation, the doctor successfully implanted the first 3D printed vertebra into the body of a 12-year-old cancer boy.

Like other bone implants, this 3D printed vertebra is made of titanium powder, but it is safer and more durable than traditional bone substitutes. Because it mimics the child's original spine shape, it does not require glue and screws, and of course, the recovery will be faster. The entire bone printed is filled with small holes that allow natural bones to grow inside, so that in the future it will become a permanently stable vertebra, so that it will not be adjusted at intervals.

In addition, CCTV reporting the news said that the operation will not be effective immediately, the boy will need to wear a fixed head and neck in the next three months, and if you want to confirm the effect of this transplant in real life, it is possible It will take longer. Of course, if some progress goes well, the operation can prove that the 3D printed bones are useful in the human body, which can bring a huge gospel, because in some cases, it may save lives. .
