Abstract
Implementing 3DRX in treating TFs improves the assessment of fracture alignment and implant position perioperatively, resulting in more intraoperative corrections and no revision surgeries within 6 weeks postoperatively. However, using 3DRX significantly increases perioperative radiation exposure and surgery duration without a significant rise in postoperative infections and a shorter hospital length of stay.
