3D Printing in Preoperative Planning in Thoracic and Lumbar Spine Trauma

Case series of 16 patients with lower lumbar or lower thoracic traumatic injuries treated with pedicle screw fixation. Patients were divided into two groups (n≈8 per group). The control group underwent standard fluoroscopy-controlled pedicle screw fixation with conventional preoperative CT planning. The experimental group underwent identical fluoroscopy-controlled fixation with preoperative planning using a patient-specific 3D-printed model.
