3d printed shoulder implant

Nathalie Dufaut Danjon was shot by a man with a hunting rifle when the bullet entered her shoulder joint through the front and exited through her shoulder blade. Her shoulder's bony anatomy was destroyed, though the nerves were not affected. With the help of 3D Printing, Loose bone fragments were attached to muscle and membrane, by Dr. Brice Viard, an orthopedic surgeon at Centre Hospitalier Universitaire in Dijon, France. She has recovered greatly since then and thanks 3D Printing for the hope for new life.
