Archive of Custom-Made Guides for Orthopedic Surgery

Is this trial a fit for you?

A plain-English reading of the study's rules. Only the study team can confirm whether you qualify.

What this trial studies

This observational effort aims to design and test an electronic archive that catalogs patient-specific cutting guides used to plan and guide orthopedic procedures, including custom implants created with 3D printing. The project focuses on capturing data from surgical planning and outcomes to support complex deformity corrections. It evaluates how well current software can automate the storage and retrieval of these guides across time, within a national or regional orthopedic setting. The study involves patients aged 2 years and older who are listed for GSM surgery at the Istituto Ortopedico Rizzoli and will use the archive as part of routine care.
