Onkos Surgical Reaches 1,000th Case With My3D Patient-Specific Pelvic Implant 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 Onkos Surgical, the platform also helps reduce delivery times for pelvic implants — a practical consideration when cases are complex and timelines matter.

The milestone builds on the company's broader personalised solutions portfolio, which is designed to help surgeons evaluate patient-specific options when planning reconstruction.

"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. "Our personalised approach is built around understanding each patient's unique anatomy and helping surgeons translate that understanding into a thoughtful reconstruction plan."

Engineering knowledge compounds case by case

For manufacturing professionals, the more telling detail may be what sits behind the number. Rick Swanson, Director of Patient Solutions, framed the milestone as an accumulation of process knowledge rather than a simple production count:

"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."

The clinical case for personalisation

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, sees pelvic work as a natural fit for this approach:

"Pelvic and acetabular reconstruction is an ideal procedure to leverage cutting-edge digital planning and personalised implants. Patient-specific implant solutions can provide surgeons with an important reconstructive option when treating cases where standard approaches may not provide an adequate treatment to address the patient's anatomy or reconstruction goals. This product is the future of acetabular revision surgery, available now."
