Quoting from the official news blog Australian government research institute, CSIRO, explained that a 54-year-old Spanish man with cancer in the chest cavity and the ribs, known as the chest wall sarcoma-- had to undergo removal of a rib.
The composition of the ribs in the chest cavity has a complex geometric shape, so that the implant and traditional flat plate mounted become loose over time.

As described news agencies Minister of Industry and Science Australia, it is the reason Dr. José Aranda, Dr. Marcelo Jimene, and Dr. Gonzalo Varela, and the surgical team of the University Hospital of Salamanca in Spain, filed a 3D mold implants.

According to Andrew Batty, CEO at Anatomics, offers a solution with the use of 3D printing in metal.
He said, "We want a 3D printing to the titanium implant because of the design, which is quite complicated." After consideration, Anatomics ask for help Lab 22 belongs to CSIRO. "
Lab 22 will print the artificial rib layer by layer using a 3D printer metals. Printing machines worth more than 13 billion made in the Arcam using electron spray for mold making.
Once complete, the breastbone (sternum) and ribs will be sent to Spain and implanted into the patient's chest. Surgery was successfully performed by physicians and patients reportedly discharged from the hospital 12 days later.
