The location and orientation of the wedge ostectomy were determined using CT data, computer-assisted planning and production of a saw guide in plastic using a 3D printer. At surgery, the guide was clamped to the surface of the radius and used to direct the oscillating saw blade. The resultant ostectomy was closed and stabilized with a bone plate.<\/jats:p><jats:p>\n            Results\u2003Five limbs healed without complications. One limb was re-operated due to a poorly resolved rotational component of the deformity. One limb required additional stabilisation with external fixation due to screw loosening. The owners of five dogs completed a Canine Orthopedic Index survey at a follow-up period of 37 to 81 months. The median preoperative score was 3.5 and the median postoperative score was 1, representing an overall positive effect of surgery. Radiographically, 5\/7 limbs were corrected in the frontal plane (2\/7 were under-corrected). Similarly, 5\/7 limbs were corrected in the sagittal plane, and 2\/7 were over-corrected in the sagittal place.<\/jats:p><jats:p>\n            Conclusions\u2003Computer-aided design and rapid prototyping technologies can be used to create saw guides to simplify one-stage corrective osteotomies of the antebrachium using internal fixation in dogs. Despite the encouraging results, accurate correction of rotational deformity was problematic and this aspect requires further development.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.1055\/s-0039-1678701","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2019,4,9]],"date-time":"2019-04-09T23:15:11Z","timestamp":1554851711000},"page":"241-249","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":34,"title":["Computer-Assisted Surgery Using 3D Printed Saw Guides for Acute Correction of Antebrachial Angular Limb Deformities in Dogs"],"prefix":"10.1055","volume":"32","author":[{"given":"Andrew","family":"Worth","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"School of Veterinary Science, Massey University, Palmerston North, New Zealand"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Katherine","family":"Crosse","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"School of Veterinary Science, Massey University, Palmerston North, New Zealand"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Andrew","family":"Kersley","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Axia Design Group Ltd, Napier, New Zealand"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]}],"member":"194","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2019,4,9]]},"container-title":["Veterinary and Comparative Orthopaedics and Traumatology"],"original-title":[],"language":"en","link":[{"URL":"http:\/\/www.thieme-connect.de\/products\/ejournals\/pdf\/10.1055\/s-0039-1678701.pdf","content-type":"unspecified","content-version":"vor","intended-application":"similarity-checking"}],"deposited":{"date-parts":[[2019,5,17]],"date-time":"2019-05-17T23:11:44Z","timestamp":1558134704000},"score":1,"resource":{"primary":{"URL":"http:\/\/www.thieme-connect.de\/DOI\/DOI?10.1055\/s-0039-1678701"}},"subtitle":[],"short-title":[],"issued":{"date-parts":[[2019,4,9]]},"references-count":0,"journal-issue":{"issue":"03","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2019,5,17]]},"published-print":{"date-parts":[[2019,5]]}},"URL":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.1055\/s-0039-1678701","relation":{},"ISSN":["0932-0814","2567-6911"],"issn-type":[{"value":"0932-0814","type":"print"},{"value":"2567-6911","type":"electronic"}],"subject":[],"published":{"date-parts":[[2019,4,9]]}}}
