Oncologists in Tatarstan removed a giant cell tumor from a patient's arm and installed a 3D implant.

      In the oncology dispensary of Tatarstan, a 24-year-old patient had a bone tumor removed from her arm and her wrist restored with the help of a 3D implant, reported the head of the Ministry of Health of the Republic of Tatarstan, Almir Abashev. The woman sought help due to pain in her wrist joint — examinations revealed a giant cell tumor destroying bone tissue. Before the surgery, the patient was prescribed medication therapy, and specialists prepared a custom implant printed on a 3D printer. Surgeons removed the affected area of the radius and installed a structure that precisely matched the patient's anatomy. The woman is currently undergoing rehabilitation. Doctors are gradually restoring the function of her hand so that she can return to her usual activities. Photos and videos: Almir Abashev's social media.
