They were treated with SNM from January 2022 to December 2023. Patients were split into study and control groups based on the origins of their pelvic anomalies, with each group comprising 28 individuals. The study group underwent preoperative 3D printing and intraoperative ultrasound-assisted puncture, whereas the control group utilized intraoperative X-ray-assisted puncture.
