Onkos Surgical Marks 1,000th Patient-Specific Pelvic Implant Case with My3D Platform

Onkos Surgical has completed its 1,000th case using the My3D patient-specific pelvic implant platform, a milestone the company says reflects the impact of 3D printing technology and personalised approaches in orthopaedic cases.

How the platform works

The My3D platform combines collaborative case planning, advanced imaging, 3D anatomic modelling, and patient-specific implant design. According to the company, this workflow helps reduce delivery times for pelvic implants — a practical consideration for engineers and surgeons alike, where turnaround can shape case scheduling and treatment planning.

Voices behind the milestone

"Reaching the 1,000th personalised My3D pelvic implant case is a meaningful milestone for Onkos and for the surgeons who partner with us on solutions for their patients," said Patrick Treacy, Founder and CEO.

"Reaching 1,000 My3D Pelvis cases represents more than a milestone; it reflects the knowledge and expertise our engineers have developed through close collaboration with surgeons," added Rick Swanson, Director of Patient Solutions.

Clinical perspective

Jeff Barry, Associate Professor of Orthopaedic Surgery and Director of the Adult Reconstruction Hip and Knee Fellowship at the UCSF Department of Orthopaedic Surgery in San Francisco, CA, weighed in on the approach:

"Pelvic and acetabular reconstruction is an ideal procedure to leverage cutting-edge digital planning and personalised implants."

The takeaway

One thousand cases is a meaningful sample size for any patient-specific workflow. For manufacturing professionals watching the medical device space, the My3D milestone signals that personalised implant production — with its combination of imaging, modelling, and design iteration — is operating at sustained volume rather than remaining a niche exercise.
