Application of three-dimensional bioprinting in orthopedics / 中华创伤杂志

ABSTRACT

The clinical demands for tissue and organ regeneration ars increasing. three-dimensional bioprinting can not only solve the problem of tissue replacement and regeneration, but also meet the personalized needs of patients by constructing highly bionic tissues and functional substitutes of active tissues and organs. So, it has broad application potential in orthopedics. The authors mainly introduce the main progress of 3D bioprinting in basic research of orthopedics such as bone tissue printing, cartilage tissue printing, biphasic printing of bone and cartilage as well as in clinical application of traumatic orthopedics, which may provide reference for clinical application of 3D bioprinting.
