Three-dimensional printed calcaneal prosthesis following total calcanectomy☆

Highlights • We reported the first case to use 3D printing technology for calcaneal prosthesis.• Short-term outcomes were satisfactory without any major complications or pain.• Differently-printed surface of the prosthesis helps to stabilize the prosthesis.• 3D-printed prosthesis is a viable reconstruction option after calcanectomy.
