A shape completion model for corrective osteotomy of distal radius malunion

This study successfully developed a shape completion model capable of reconstructing healthy 3D radius models based on the proximal bone. The observed errors indicate that the model is viable for use in 3D planning for patients lacking a healthy contralateral radius. However, routine use in patients with a healthy contralateral radius is not yet advised, as error margins exceed bilateral differences observed in healthy populations. The most clinically relevant error found in the model, length mismatch, can be easily corrected during 3D planning if the ipsilateral ulna remains intact.
