A A 60-year-old male with infective bone union on the left femoral, compared with the right-side limb, the patient presented serve varous deformity and length discrepancy. B The resection of infective necrosis bone was performed, used outfixation to sustain stability of the remained femur. C The vancomycin loaded bone cement spacer was filled in the bone defect section. D The design image of the customized 3D-printed prosthesis. E The photograph of real products, highly consistent with the specific shape of bone defect section. F Well fixation of the prosthesis after removing the outfixation and anti-infection filler. G X-ray image showed acceptable result without internal fixator failure in the last follow-up
