The I3PT creates Tailor Surgery, a spin-off dedicated to the application of 3D printing in traumatology

Comunicació,


Tailor Surgery is the new spin-off of the Parc Taulí Research and Innovation Institute (I3PT), a CataloniaBio & HealthTech member, which is formed with the aim of globally marketing the line of customized instruments and customized implants in traumatology of the 3D Laboratory of the Institute.

The creation of Tailor Surgery as a spin-off will allow the activity carried out by the 3D Laboratory of design of surgical guides i custom implants become a platform that can market your services globally. Javier Peso will serve as Chief Executive Officer (CEO) and Ferran Fillat as Chief Medical Officer (CMO) of Tailor Surgery.

Likewise, Tailor Surgery will also focus its activity on the design and manufacture of customized implants. These, unlike conventional implants, are made to measure and in line with the patient's 3D surgical planning.

In 2014, with the acquisition of the first 3D printer at Parc Taulí, a new line of work and research was born that used 3D printing with the aim of addressing complex cases in traumatology. Only one year later, the 3D Laboratory was formally established, thus responding to the clinical and research needs of Parc Taulí. Since then, the growth of activity using 3D technology to diagnose and treat patients has been exponential, going from 5 surgeries performed in 2014 to almost 500 in 2021, thanks to the efforts of the clinical team led by Dr. Ferran Fillat, consolidated in a unit referring to all of Spain.
