Study Design Systematic ReviewObjective 3DP technology use has become increasingly more common in the field of medicine and is notable for its growing utility in spine surgery applications. Many studies have evaluated the use of pedicle screw placement guides and spine models in adult spine patients, but there is little evidence assessing its efficacy in pediatric spine patient populations. This systematic review identifies and evaluates the current applications and surgical outcomes of 3-Dimensional Printing (3DP) technology in pediatric spinal surgery.Methods A search of publications was conducted using literature databases and relevant keywords in concordance with PRISMA guidelines. Inclusion criteria consisted of original studies, and studies focusing on the use of 3DP technology in pediatric spinal surgery. Studies with a focus on adult populations, non-deformity surgery, animal subjects, systematic or literature reviews, editorials, or non-English studies were excluded from further analysis.Results After application of inclusion/exclusion criteria, we identified 25 studies with 3DP applications in pediatric spinal surgery. Overall, the studies found significantly improved screw placement accuracy using 3DP pedicle screw placement guides but did not identify significant differences in operative time or blood loss. All studies that utilized 3D spine models in preoperative planning found it helpful and noted an increased screw placement accuracy rate of 89.9%.Conclusions 3DP applications and techniques are currently used in pre-operative planning using pedicle screw drill guides and spine models to improve patient outcomes in pediatric spinal deformity patients. |
