3D printing manufacturing organs open over 10 billion medical market

The data shows that a total of 18 people worldwide die every day because they cannot find a suitable organ transplant. But this situation is expected to change, and in the future we may be able to get the right organs through 3D printing.

The reporter learned that the current Organovo company in the United States has used 3D printing technology to cultivate human liver tissue for toxicology prediction and disease modeling, and plans to officially commercialize at the end of this year. As technology matures, 3D printing will set off an industrial revolution in the medical world.

The application market will exceed 10 billion

A special surgery is underway at the Department of Orthopaedics, the Ninth People's Hospital affiliated to Shanghai Jiao Tong University School of Medicine.

This is a patient with a pelvic tumor. After the diagnosis, most of the pelvis is removed and the risk of disability is faced. The doctor is trying to get him to stand up again.

Prof. Dai Kejun, academician of the Chinese Academy of Engineering and director of the orthopaedic department of the hospital, said that according to the previous method, the commonly used "universal" metal products or treated allogeneic bones were used to repair huge bone defects, but the matching was poor and the effect was not good. Now, they are trying to “print” a new pelvis for patients using 3D printing technology.
