Popis:	Spinal fusion is performed for degenerative spinal condition when conservative measures fail. Implant size and shape are not standardised between manufacturers, and best match often means compromises. Bioprinting offers a unique opportunity to create a tailor-made solution. PURPOSE: The goal of this study was to design and manufacture a 3D-printed lumbar cage for lumbar interbody fusion.
