We have created a 3D printed kit for the micro-anastomosis training session on synthetic models within the neurovascular microsurgical course "Aneurysms Clipping and Vascular anastomosis on Synthetic and Placenta" that ended today at the Simnova simulation center in Novara.

Our latest achievement involves the collaboration with the Emergency-Urgency Medicine Grad School of the University of Pavia in the creation of the Massive Hemorrhage Simulator.

3D Printing can help surgeons to improve existing procedures or to create innovative approaches. In this study, we show how a 3d printed anatomical model can support neurosurgeons to plan a complex craniectomy  for cerebral bone tumor resection.
This study aimed to improve pre-operative planning using a novel approach with 3D patient-specific models reconstructed from MRI or CT images.

The aim of the study is to reduce prosthesis failures caused by the stress shielding phenomenon with a numerical workflow through which we first simulate the bone remodelling process with the finite element analysis (Ansys) and then, we use the resulting information to guide a patient-specific implant’s topology optimization

The Urology Department of Fondazione IRCCS Policlinico San Matteo requested 3D4Med support for the production of two 3D printed models for surgicalplanning and anatomical comprehension. Both clinical cases regard patients referred to Fondazione IRCCS Policlinico San Matteo for kidney cancer. Patients underwent a kidney tumors' enucleation procedure and the 3D printed models were used to better understand the tumors' positioning and degree of infiltration.
