Abstract

Aim: To compare the efficacy of 3D printing-assisted surgery with routine surgery in the treatment of distal radius fractures to evaluate whether 3D printing technology has more advantages. Materials & methods: To retrieve all published studies that compared the efficacy of 3D printing-assisted surgery with routine surgery for distal radius fractures. Operation time, frequency of intraoperative fluoroscopy, blood loss and other outcomes were assessed. Results: Theresults suggested that 3D printing-assisted surgery was better than routine surgery in the fields of operation time, frequency of intraoperative fluoroscopy, and blood loss. Conclusion: In the treatment of distal radius fractures, 3D printing-assisted surgery may be superior to routine surgery.
