The general aim of this project is to develop a new, unique, individualised, 3D printed segmental implant that represents a significant advancement in the treatment of avascular necrosis and cartilage defects of the femoral head. This innovative approach not only offers substantial benefits to patients by preserving their natural joint structure and delaying more invasive procedures, but also provides long-term socioeconomic advantages. Extending this technology to other joints holds promise for broader applications in orthopaedic surgery, potentially revolutionising the management of osteochondral defects across the body.
