MacLeod et al. evaluate the mechanical safety of 3D-printed personalised high tibial osteotomy (HTO) plates in an in silico clinical trial. Using this novel methodology, they find no increased risk of mechanical failure for personalised devices compared to conventional plates, supporting further studies to assess clinical outcomes in patients treated with personalised HTO.
