Three-dimensional (3D) printing technology has undergone rapid developments over
the last decades. The application of 3D printing has reached beyond the engineering field to
medicine, with research showing many applications in cardiovascular disease. Due to the complexity
of the cardiovascular system, application of 3D printing technology has shown potential
value to benefit patients with cardiovascular disease. This mini-review provides an overview of
applications of 3D printing in cardiovascular disease, with evidence of some of examples using
patient-specific 3D printed models in the two common cardiovascular diseases, aortic dissection
and abdominal aortic aneurysm.
