The preoperative contouring of plates decreases the duration of surgery and improves the quality of the reduction of pelvic fractures. Patient-tailored three-dimensionally printed pelvises might be an interesting tool for achieving that purpose. Currently, no study has evaluated the accuracy of measurements performed on three-dimensional printed models in comparison with computed tomography data for complex bones, such as the pelvis. This study examined whether the measurements obtained on pelvises printed using dual-material fused deposition modeling technology are not significantly different from those obtained on computed tomography images. The computed tomography images of the pelvic region from 10 dogs were used to produce three-dimensionally printed models with a dual-material fused deposition-modeling process. Four segments were measured on both three-dimensionally printed models and computed tomography images. The measurements were performed by three observers and repeated twice. Concordance correlation coefficients were used to assess the precision and accuracy of the measurements as well as evaluate the agreement between the methods. The accuracy of measurements between the methods was > 0.99 for all measurements. The precision was almost perfect for AE (0.996), substantial for BD and BC (0.963 and 0.958, respectively), and moderate for CD (0.912). These results indicate that, despite some minor variations, the measurements performed on printed models reproduced the computed tomography data reliably.
