<p>Background: Planning in orthopedic surgery can be supported by various virtual reconstruction and tri-dimensional (3D) segmentation programs, but this topic requires further study to identify software solutions that make the process duration more efficient. Objective: To validate 3D software solutions that integrates 3D technologies for patient-specific applications in orthopedics in order to minimize the extent of surgery. Method: We have used the Democratiz3D software solution for patient-specific modeling and surgical planning. Results: Validation of the proposed methodology was performed for the preoperative planning of a 28-year-old male patient who had a Schatzker type II tibial plateau fracture. Conclusion: The 3D planning capabilities of the software solution are a valuable tool for surgeons in exploring the nature of fractures and formulating an appropriate surgical plan which creates perspectives for personalized surgery.</p>
