Custom-made orthopaedic/craniofacial surgical guide

Definition

A custom-made surgical instrument intended to be used in an orthopaedic and/or craniomaxillofacial procedure (e.g., osteotomy, arthroplasty, tumour resection, distraction osteogenesis, cranial vault reconstruction) to assist in the intraoperative orientation of implant components, outlining the desired cut-line, and/or guiding of surgical instruments (e.g., surgical drill, oscillating cutting saw). It is made of synthetic polymer materials and is typically manufactured by 3-D printing and CAD/CAM techniques to match the patient-specific contours of the target anatomical site. This is a single-use device.
