Abstract
Custom total joint replacement (TJA) implants, specifically designed and manufactured for each patient, have emerged as surgeons seek to improve functional outcomes of primary total joint replacement, as well as treat patients with complex primary deformities, bone defects, and revision surgeries. The purpose of this review is to present the various custom total hip and knee arthroplasty implants available in the United States for primary and revision cases, so that surgeons can understand the design considerations and manufacturing processes of custom implants, as well as their performance compared to standard implants.
