Abstract
Resection and reconstruction of the chest wall can pose unique challenges given its vital role in the protection of the thoracic viscera and the dynamic part it plays in respiration. A number of new three-dimensional (3D) technologies may be invaluable in tackling these challenges. Herein we review the use of 3D technologies in preoperative imaging with virtual 3D models, printing of 3D models for preoperative planning, and printing of 3D prostheses when approaching complex chest wall reconstruction.
