Surgical Treatment for Posterior Dislocation of Hip Combined with Acetabular Fractures Using Preoperative Virtual Simulation and Three-Dimensional Printing Model-Assisted Precontoured Plate Fixation Techniques

<div>Computer-assisted simulation with three-dimensional (3D) model for designing plate fixation: (a) 3D image reconstruction by Mimics with segmentation (anteroposterior and posteroanterior views). (b) Image with femur subtraction. (c) Setting the midline as mirrored plane for virtual reduction. (d) Mirrored nonfractured hemipelvis. (e) A 3D model of the mirrored nonfractured hemipelvis and design of the H-shaped configuration internal fixation. One spring plate (arrowhead) covered by posterior wall buttress plate (arrow) and posterior column (bold arrow).</div>
