3D-Printed Reconstruction – Osteobionix

Custom Thoracic Implants

Thoracic Implants

Personalized innovation for every patient

Chest wall reconstruction is a complex surgical challenge and, despite the variety of existing solutions, none has proven to be universally optimal. Traditional implants often come with limitations that compromise their effectiveness. Some of the most common drawbacks include:  

Z

Incomplete protection – Insufficient rigidity and stability, leaving vital structures vulnerable  

Z

Paradoxical breathing – Lack of implant stability causing abnormal respiratory mechanics

Z

Respiratory distress – Excessive rigidity impeding normal lung function

Z

Post-operative pain – Inadequate permeability and excessive rigidity contributing to discomfort

Z

Implant breakage – Mechanical failure due to inadequate material resistance

Z

Infection risk – Lack of permeability, tissue integration, and vascularization increasing infection susceptibility

Why choose a custom thoracic implant?

At osteobionix, we address these challenges with patient-specific titanium implants, meticulously designed from the patient’s CT scan and developed in close collaboration with surgeons. Our solutions offer:  

Z

3D-Printed titanium alloy implants – Precision-manufactured using laser technology 

Z

Customizable size and shape – Ranging from a single rib to a full sternum with multiple ribs

Z

Sternoclavicular joint replacement – Available when needed for enhanced function

Z

Stability and protection – A robust design preventing paradoxical chest motion and safeguarding internal organs

Z

Flexible and extensible rib structures – Mimicking natural costal cartilage to facilitate normal respiratory mechanics

Z

Anatomically optimized shape – Designed to replicate the natural rib cage, minimizing post-operative deformities 

Z

Versatile fixation options – Claw-type fixation, screws, cerclage and posterior spinal fixation available

Z

Hyperelastic structures – Available for improved biomechanical performance and adaptability

Hip Reconstruction in a Patient with Bone Tumor

Patient: 45-year-old male with osteosarcoma in the pelvis.
Problem: Extensive bone destruction in the acetabular region due to an aggressive tumor.
Solution:

  • Custom pelvic implant made of porous titanium.
  • Integration with a hip prosthesis to restore mobility.
  • 3D printing technology based on the patient's CT scan for a precise anatomical fit.
    Outcome:
    The patient regained mobility with post-operative physiotherapy and avoided complications associated with standard reconstructions.

Severe Scoliosis Correction with a Custom Spinal Implant

Patient: 16-year-old adolescent with severe idiopathic scoliosis.
Problem: Progressive spinal deformity causing severe pain and affecting respiratory function.
Solution:

  • Personalized spinal fixation system to correct the curvature.
  • Use of modular 3D-printed implants to provide stability and support.
  • Advanced surgical planning with 3D simulations before surgery.
    Outcome:
    Significant curvature reduction, improved posture, and pain relief, allowing a gradual return to normal activities.

Sternum and Rib Reconstruction After Oncologic Resection

Patient: 60-year-old female with an invasive sternal tumor.
Problem: Removal of the sternum and several ribs, leading to chest wall instability and respiratory difficulty.
Solution:

  • Custom thoracic implant made of titanium to replace the sternum and ribs.
  • Flexible rib design mimicking the natural biomechanics of the rib cage.
  • Minimally invasive surgery assisted by 3D imaging technology.
    Outcome:
    Successful recovery with restored chest wall stability and normal respiratory function.

Cranio-Maxillofacial Reconstruction in a Patient with Severe Trauma

Patient: 30-year-old male with multiple skull and jaw fractures after a car accident.
Problem: Severe bone loss compromising facial symmetry and chewing function.
Solution:

  • Custom craniofacial implants 3D-printed in titanium.
  • Cutting and positioning guides to ensure precise reconstruction.
  • Multidisciplinary approach with maxillofacial surgeons and orthodontists.
    Outcome:
    Aesthetic and functional restoration with improved chewing, speech, and overall quality of life.
