The aim of this paper was to present the method used for creating a 3D model fractured hemipelvis and its accuracy in reproducing dimensions structural relationships between fragments. A PolyLactic acid generated with aid printer. Using complex fracture aids orthopedic surgeon planning intervention choosing best fixation method. Patients pelvic fractures are not usually operated immediately, which is why they can benefit from technology.
