Discussion

Observational analysis compares patient-specific designs with conventional plates, revealing superior stiffness and displacement performance.

Both 3D reconstruction and generative design plates exhibited increased stiffness, outperforming conventional plates.
In bending tests, 3D reconstruction plates were 23.8% stiffer, while generative design plates increased stiffness by 10%.
Biomechanical tests demonstrated that patient-specific plates had 15% lower displacement than conventional plates under load.
Integration of poly(lactic acid) prototypes with metal additive manufacturing may enhance surgical decision-making.

Xu et al. (2025) studied this question.
