Dr. Bradley Lamm, Director of the Foot and Ankle Deformity Center and Fellowship at the Paley Institute, discusses his groundbreaking work in patient-specific orthopedic surgery, including performing the world’s first MedCAD 3D-printed patient-specific cut guide procedure for ankle realignment. He explains how the technology uses detailed 3D CAT scans to create custom surgical guides, reduction devices, and implants tailored to each patient’s unique anatomy, significantly improving precision and outcomes. Dr. Lamm emphasizes the transformative potential of this approach, which allows for preoperative planning visualization, enhanced surgeon confidence, and more predictable results in complex deformity correction. He also explores the convergence of patient-specific technology with robotics, outpatient care, and value-based care, predicting broader adoption even in routine cases. Looking ahead, he highlights emerging trends like bioresorbable implants, minimally invasive techniques, and biologics such as stem cells and PRP as key drivers in accelerating healing and functional recovery.
Patient-specific 3D-printed surgical guides and implants improve precision and outcomes in complex foot and ankle deformity correction.
Preoperative 3D planning with MedCAD allows surgeons and patients to visualize and fine-tune surgical corrections, increasing confidence and accuracy.
The technology is poised to expand beyond complex cases into routine orthopedic procedures, democratizing high-precision care.
Biologics like PRP, stem cells, and bone grafts are becoming essential tools for enhancing surgical healing and functional recovery.
Future orthopedic advancements will focus on faster healing, minimally invasive techniques, and bioresorbable implants that integrate with the body.
Introduction to Dr. Bradley Lamm and His Expertise
Dr. Bradley Lamm introduces himself as a foot and ankle surgeon with over 25 years of experience, Chief of Foot and Ankle Surgery at St. Mary's Medical Center, and Director of the Foot and Ankle Deformity Center and Fellowship at the Paley Institute. He highlights his training in limb deformity correction and limb lengthening.
World's First MedCAD 3D-Printed Patient-Specific Ankle Realignment
“This is kind of revolutionary in orthopedics where it's not deformity specific where it's five degrees of rotated or angled bone, but it's very patient specific where it's not only five degrees, but it's got the lumps and bumps and contour of their specific deformity.”
Workflow of Patient-Specific Surgical Planning with MedCAD
Dr. Lamm walks through the MedCAD workflow: using preoperative 3D CAT scans to plan corrections, collaborating with engineers to fine-tune designs, creating custom implants and guides, and using the plan to guide surgery with precision.
Future of Orthopedics: Integration with Robotics, Biologics, and Value-Based Care
“I think that's going to be now and also in the future, a huge part of orthopedics and helping the patients get back to their feet and do their activities quicker.”
