Case studies

Revision surgeries are a reality in the world of spine surgery. The new implant should immediately stabilise the joint and have increased bone-to-device contact area to enhance faster fusion and reduce the risk of further complications.

A big misconception is that patient specific implants need a lot of time to produce. This example challenges this preconception.

Pre-operative planning is an important aspect of the surgical process. Careful planning can provide surgeons with an additional understanding of the interaction between the implant and patient anatomy, leading to better and more consistent post-operative outcomes.

A series of small corrections designed into the implant can combine to produce a meaningful improvement in global alignment.

To achieve appropriate realignment correction, the cage must fit the endplate anatomy and be designed with suitable alignment correction.

A 22-year-old man's quality of life was significantly impacted by ongoing challenges and new pain following an initial surgery for chiari malformation. The surgeon proposed a revision surgery using custom-made fusion devices for the C1/C2 facet joints and sought out 3DMorphic's technology as the solution to meet to the patient's requirements.
