This abstract first appeared for US patent application 20240245517 titled '3D PRINTED MONOBLOCK ORTHOPAEDIC SURGICAL IMPLANT WITH CUSTOMIZED PATIENT-SPECIFIC AUGMENT

'''Simplified Explanation:'''
The patent application describes an acetabular shell component with a solid substrate, porous outer and inner layers, and an inner bearing. Adjuncts extend from the porous outer layer, each customized to fit a patient's bone contour.

* The acetabular shell component includes a solid substrate, porous outer and inner layers, and an inner bearing.
* Adjuncts extend from the porous outer layer, each with a customized patient-specific negative contour.
* The components are manufactured using an additive manufacturing process.

'''Potential Applications:'''
1. Orthopedic surgeries
2. Customized medical implants

'''Problems Solved:'''
1. Providing a customized fit for patients
2. Enhancing the stability and durability of acetabular components

'''Benefits:'''
1. Improved patient outcomes
2. Enhanced comfort and functionality
3. Reduced risk of implant failure

'''Commercial Applications:'''
Customized orthopedic implants for hospitals and medical facilities

'''Questions about Acetabular Shell Component:'''
1. How does the porous outer layer contribute to the customization of the implant?
2. What are the advantages of using an additive manufacturing process for manufacturing these components?

'''Frequently Updated Research:'''
