Özet
The coexisting of three deformities as hallux valgus, flatfoot, and the calcaneal spur is an undefined medical condition, and it may be called triad of foot deformities (TFD) as a definition for a new disease entity. A customized 3D insole prototype was created by postprocessing of MRI data, and printed by 3D printer technology for the purpose of providing effective and innovative treatment for TFD. A 42 years-old female was clinically examined for TFD findings. All radiological measurements were made on the weightbearing anteroposterior and lateral X-rays. The patient underwent the pedogram (RSscan International, footscan©). MRI images were taken for the purpose of 3D scanning that was used for producing the 3D splint for TFD. AOFAS (American Orthopedic Foot and Ankle Society scores) and FHSQ (Foot Health Status Questionnaire) were used for clinical follow-up. MRI images of the patient were imported to Mimics software in order to create a 3D model using image processing. Thus, Patient-Specific 3D customized silicone orthotic insole that was based on 3D printing technology was produced. The one-simple test was used to compare the results of AOFAS and FHSQ scores. The measurements of radiological measurements were given. On the clinical follow-up, AOFAS was FHSQ scores were obtained. There was a significant difference in terms of AOFAS and FHSQ scores ( p ≤ 0.05). As a result of our study; our 3D customized insole was produced at the price of approximately 1/3 of the total cost of three standard medical products. The coexisting of these three deformities may be called triad of foot deformities (TFD). The 3D printer technology enables us to access a customized, personalized conservative treatment option for TFD. The conservative treatment of TFD is possible by a single orthotic insole.
