We studied the three-dimensional (3-D) shape variations and symmetry of the lunate to evaluate whether a contralateral shape-based approach to design patient-specific implants for treatment of Kienböck’s disease is accurate. A 3-D statistical shape model of the lunate was built using the computed tomography scans of 54 lunate pairs and shape symmetry was evaluated based on an intraclass correlation analysis. The lunate shape was not bilaterally symmetrical in (1) the angle scaphoid surface – radius-ulna surface, (2) the dorsal side and the length of the side adjacent to the triquetrum, (3) the orientation of the volar surface, (4) the width of the side adjacent to the scaphoid, (5) the skewness in the coronal plane and (6) the curvature of bone articulating with the hamate and capitate. These findings suggest that using the contralateral lunate to design patient-specific lunate implants may not be as accurate as it is intended.

A rapid 3D reconstruction of bones and other structures during an operation is an important issue. However, most of existing technologies are not feasible to be implemented in an intraoperative environment. Normally, a 3D reconstruction has to be done by a CT or an MRI pre operation or post operation. Due to some physical constraints, it is not feasible to utilise such machine intraoperatively. A special type of MRI has been developed to overcome the problem. However, all normal surgical tools and instruments cannot be employed. This chapter discusses a possible method to use a small number, e.g. 5, of conventional 2D X-ray images to reconstruct 3D bone and other structures intraoperatively. A statistical shape model is used to fit a set of optimal landmarks vertices, which are automatically created from the 2D images, to reconstruct a full surface. The reconstructed surfaces can then be visualised and manipulated by surgeons or used by surgical robotic systems.
