  1. Cardiac

Utility of a Super-Flexible Three-Dimensional Printed Heart Model in Congenital Heart Surgery

  • July 20, 2018

Submitted by: Claire Vernon

Source: Interactive Cardiovascular and Thoracic Surgery
Source URL: https://doi.org/10.1093/icvts/ivy160

Keywords:

  • Cardiac Congenital
Author(s): Takaya Hoashi, Hajime Ichikawa, Tomohiro Nakata, Masatoshi Shimada, Hideto Ozawa, Akihiko Higashida, Kenichi Kurosaki, Suzu Kanzaki, Isao Shiraishi

The authors report on their experience with three-demensional (3D) printed heart models in congenital cardiac surgery, having printed 20 3D models for preoperative simulation within the last three years. All operations were performed by a young consultant surgeon. The authors concluded that 3D printing helped them to understand the pathology and simulate the surgical approach.
