When a patient in Switzerland was facing the prospect of losing a leg to cancer, their doctor was forced to think outside the box. Due to the limitation in the market when it came to patients’ requiring larger limbs replacements, the doctor knew the only solution would be to have something custom made. Soon after being contacted, PMMI used its first CNC Machine (turning center) purchased to manufacture an oversized hip stems with adjustable bone sections. This eliminated the need to amputate the limb because the manufactured parts replaced the diseased sections, allowing the patient at chance to recover without the trauma of losing a limb.
