Abstract

Purpose: Discuss the new method of individual internal fixation with steel plate customization.

Method: Customize individual internal fixation with steel plate according to 3D reconstruction of CT images and Ugnx. Pro/E machining method.

Result: Success in customization about the first individual internal fixation with clavicular hook plate for the treatment of multisegmental fracture of clavicle.

Conclusion: The new method of individual internal fixation with steel plate customization according to 3D reconstruction of CT images and Ugnx, Pro/E machining technique is a good news for patients of orthopaedic trauma. We are fully confident of the future development of the method of individual internal fixation with steel plate customization.
