Three-dimensional printing in cardiac surgery and interventional cardiology: a single-centre experience
European Journal Of Cardio-thoracic SurgeryPeer ReviewedDaniel Schmauß +32014Journals
In individual cases, routine preoperative imaging might not be sufficient for optimal planning of cardiovascular procedures. Three-dimensional printing (3D), a widely used technique to build life-like replicas of anatomical structures that has proven value in different medical disciplines, might overcome these shortcomings. However, data on 3D printing in cardiovascular medicine are limited to single reports. This stimulated us to present our single-centre experience with 3D printing models in cardiac surgery and interventional cardiology.
