The use of commercial products such as a cup and liner for total hip arthroplasty for patients with severe bone defects has a high probability of *** these patients the cup alone cannot cover the bone defect,and thus,an additional augment or cage is *** this study,we designed three-dimensional(3D)printable bone augments as an alternative to surgeries using reinforcement ***-five sharp-edged bone augments of various sizes were 3D printed.A biporous structure was designed to reduce the weight of the augment and to facilitate bone *** types of frames were used to prevent damage to the augment’s porous structure and maintain its stability during ***,two types of holes were provided for easy augment fixation at various *** tests were performed on a combination of worst-case sizes derived using finite element *** test results confirmed the structural stability of the specimens at a load of 5340 *** the porosity of the specimens was measured to be 63.70%,it cannot be said that the porous nature was uniformly distributed because porosity tests were performed locally and *** summary,3D-printable biporous bone augments capable of bonding from various angles and bidirectionally through angulation and bottom-plane screw holes are *** mechanical results with bone augments indicate good structural safety in ***,further research is necessary to study the clinical applications of the proposed bone augment.
