Accuracy of Patient-Specific Instruments for Supramalleolar Osteotomies
Listen to this summary
The authors aimed to evaluate the accuracy of patient-specific instruments (PSIs) in performing supramalleolar osteotomies (SMOs) for correcting distal tibia deformities. Their study found that the post-operative corrections achieved using PSIs closely matched pre-operative simulations, with differences within 1°, indicating that PSIs facilitate precise execution of surgical planning. The results suggest that PSIs may enhance the technical accuracy of SMOs compared to traditional free-hand techniques, warranting further investigation into their clinical benefits.
