A Company called Mobelife, owned by Materialize has come up with an innovative way to make one women more comfortable. They 3D printed the socket of a hip, catered just for the patient so that the ball of the joint would fit perfectly within. Once done they used the patient's own stem cells to hold everything in place. The full detail of the surgery can be found here: http://3dprint.com/10743/3d-printed-hip/

The patient is now pain free for the first time in 35 years. Let's hear your thoughts on where this technology may be headed. Check out the gif of the implant below:
