Synopsis

Sixty patients with closed tibiofibular diaphyseal fractures were randomized to receive either preoperative simulation with a 3D-printed model (n=30) or conventional preoperative planning (n=30). The primary outcome of interest was operative time. Secondary outcomes included intraoperative blood loss, frequency of fluoroscopy, pain (VAS), and functional recovery (Johner-Wruhs scale). Outcomes were...
