Article Abstract
Case Summary: We present a case of a 31-year-old man with a history of aortic valve endocarditis and surgical aortic intervention. Computed tomography revealed a complex serpiginous fistula with 2 openings between the left ventricular outflow tract and the left atrium. Using 3-dimensional printing simulation for device fit testing and planning, the "mother-in-daughter" system, multimodality guidance with computed tomography angiography C-arm prediction, and 3-dimensional transesophageal echocardiogram guidance successfully guided an 18-mm Cribriform Amplatzer device deployed via a retrograde approach.
Take-home Message: Three-dimensional printing simulation significantly enhances preprocedural planning and device selection for this complex fistula closure, facilitating successful percutaneous repairs in high-risk patients.

Background: Intervertebral disc (IVD) herniation is a major cause of low back pain and disability, with microdiscectomy being the standard surgical treatment. However, microdiscectomy fails to address annulus fibrosus (AF) defects, increasing the risk of recurrent herniation. Current therapeutic strategies for this condition remain limited in efficacy.

The implementation of 3D printing technologies in clinical settings depends on formulations that are not only printable and compliant with quality standards but also physicochemical stable and reliable under real-use conditions. This study evaluated the in-use and long-term physicochemical and rheological stability of two hydrogel inks developed for semisolid extrusion (SSE) 3D printing: one containing pimobendan (PBD) and the other a placebo. PBD is a poorly water-soluble drug used to treat canine heart failure, whose formulation challenges highlight the potential of personalised drug delivery.

Aim: This study investigates the application of three-dimensional (3D) printing in cancer research and treatment, highlighting the current advancements, key areas of interest, and emerging trends in the field.
Methods: Literature records and cited references were retrieved from the Web of Science Core Collection (WOSCC) database and analyzed using Excel 2019, Bibliometrix, VOSviewer, and CiteSpace. Based on the scientometric results, a stratified and focused thematic analysis was performed by cancer type to enhance clinical relevance and investigate tumor-specific applications.
