Abstract

Using computed tomography scans, we were able to treat symptomatic osteoid osteoma of the distal radius with the help of 3D printing technology that involves designing bone models and fabricating surgical guides to locate the tumour precisely and resect it successfully with limited exposure without the use of any intraoperative imaging. This is a new technology that can be applied to treat bony lesions and can be an alternative solution to currently available techniques.
