英文摘要：

[Objective] To present a custom design and rapid fabrication method for artificial semi-knee joint based on computer aided design （CAD） and rapid prototyping （RP） technique and to evaluate the clinical application value of semiknee arthroplasty and the role of CAD/RP technique in the design and fabrication of the prosthesis are. [Methods] The scanning information of computer tomography （CT） and three dimensional reconstruction image of the patient were obtained as basic data by graphics processing software. The curved surface of knee joint was reconstructed by means of Nonuniform Rational B-Spline （NURBS）. Based on the reconstructed surface, three dimensional CAD model of semi-knee prosthesis and related connecting implements including intramedulltary pin, fusion cages and positioning device were designed. The prototypes of these models were made by laser prototyping system rapidly and then the prosthesis was fabricated by investment casting for high quality. The prosthesis was used in 1 case of a young patient whose distal femur was destroyed by osteosarcoma, the semi-knee arthroplasty was performed with allograft to evaluate the clinical applicaton value of prosthesis. [Results] All the design and fabrication process could be acompleted, the maxium error was less than 1 mm as analysed by computer. Simulating by CAD model of joint, the femur surface could perfectly match the tibia surface in each position including flexion, extension and rotation, The prosthesis made by RP and investment casting could meet design requirements and could be installed in allograft bone precisely. After operation, the prosthesis was in right position and could match the joint surface of tibia accurately without any adverse effect. After operation and followedup for one year showed that the function of the knee was recovered satisfactorily without dislocation. The patient could walk, partially squat and climb stairs without any pain. [Conedmion] CAD and RP are advanced and excellent techniques on fabricating custom de
